Mr. Morgan

To ask the Attorney-General on what date the Wales area office of the Crown Prosecution Service received the papers from the South Wales police fraud squad and the district audit service in relation to the claiming of travel expenses by the previous chief executive of the Health Promotion Authority for Wales.

The Solicitor-General

On 10 May 1994, the Crown Prosecution Service Cardiff branch received the papers from the South Wales police following their investigation of the activities of the previous chief executive of the Health Promotion Authority for Wales. The police submitted the papers for advice as to whether criminal proceedings should be instituted.

There has been a meeting between the police and CPS lawyers and the CPS has asked for a number of additional inquiries to be made. Only when the results are available will it be possible for the CPS to advise.
