Mr. Llwyd

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will publish for the last convenient date the names of the members of non-departmental public bodies in Wales, noting the political balance for each body based on political affiliations on appointment.

I refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave to the hon. Member for Bridgend (Mr. Griffiths) on 14 February, column648–50.

Mr. Ron Davies

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will make it his policy to place in the Library a copy of the curriculum vitae of each person he appoints to a quango, trust or similar public body in Wales; and if he will take steps to ensure such curricula vitae record membership or active support for political parties.

Mr. Redwood

Mr. Ron Davies

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will place in the Library a copy of the curriculum vitae of each person appointed to a position on a quango or other similar public body in Wales for each of the last five years.

Mr. Redwood

[holding answer 7 February 1994]: I already make available, in the Library of the House, a list of all those currently appointed by me to NDPBs in Wales. The list shows the current members of each body, giving for each person their name, occupation, place of residence, the period of their appointments, the remuneration receivable in respect of their appointment and an estimate of the time commitment involved.

I also publish a press notice, at the time when each appointment is made, giving a brief note on the background of the people concerned.

The list is published quarterly: the current version relates to the situation at 1 December 1993.
