HC Deb 24 January 1968 vol 757 c144W
Mr. Prior

asked the Secretary of State for Economic Affairs whether he will appoint a representative from Great Yarmouth or Lowestoft to the East Anglian Economic Council so that the particular problems of this area can be put forward.

Mr. Alan Williams

Members are appointed to councils as individuals and not as representatives of particular places or interests, but we also try to attain a satisfactory geographical balance of membership and will bear the hon. Member's suggestion in mind.
