HC Deb 27 May 1971 vol 818 c225W
Q8. Mr. Normanton

asked the Prime Minister whether he will initiate a review of the number of public boards established under statutory authority, the membership of these boards, and the cost to public funds; and whether they are necessary and financially justifiable.

The Prime Minister

It has always been the Government's policy to keep the number and cost of such bodies down to the necessary minimum.
