HC Deb 31 January 1974 vol 868 c166W
Mr. Elystan Morgan

asked the Secretary of State for Wales how many of the staff of the Welsh Office are employed (a) full time, and (b) part time, in connection with the EEC.

Mr. Peter Thomas

Seven are employed almost full time on work in connection with the EEC. It is not possible to give a number for those employed part time because the EEC impinges widely on the work of my Department and any member of the staff is liable to have to deal with EEC matters as part of his or her work.
