HC Deb 04 June 1997 vol 295 c193W
22. Mr. Mackinlay

To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster what proposals he has to review the relationship of Government agencies with(a) Government Departments, (b) Ministers and (c) Parliament. [543]

Mr. Kilfoyle

In the first instance, it is for the Minister responsible for each particular agency to keep these important relationships in good order but we are considering whether there are any matters of general application that need to be addressed. We will do this in the context of our commitment to modernising Government services and making them more responsive.
