§ Mr. DonohoeTo ask the Secretary of State for Defence how many staff are employed in Scotland by his Department, or executive agencies responsible to his Department; and where those staff are located. [36216]
§ Mr. Spellar[pursuant to his reply, 30 March 1998,c. 414]: I regret that the information provided contained some errors.
Owing to a coding misallocation, personnel employed by the Naval Base and Supplies Agency were included as "Other MOD staff' rather than "Staff employed by agencies". Some of these personnel had also been allocated to the Dumbarton and Clydebank Local Authority Area rather than the Argyll and Bute Local Authority Area.
These amendments have been made. The correct information is set out in the table.
