HC Deb 08 February 1994 vol 237 c188W
Mr. Dafis

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will publish details of the total cost of the administration of Her Majesty's inspectors of schools for each year since 1990–91.

Sir Wyn Roberts

The Office of Her Majesty's chief inspector of schools in Wales—OHMCI—was established as a separate Government Department in September 1992. Prior to that date, when Her Majesty's inspectors of schools formed part of the Welsh Office, administration costs were not separately identified. Administration costs after September 1992 are a matter for OHMCI.
