§ Dr. CableTo ask the Secretary of State for International Development if she will list the names of staff who have been seconded to her Department from the private sector since May 1997, indicating(a) the names of the organisation from which each has come, (b) their responsibilities and Civil Service grades within her Department, (c) the organisation responsible for paying their salary and (d) the start and end dates of their secondment. [35834]
§ Hilary BennThe information requested is as follows:
§ Hilary BennOur records show that DFID has incurred legal costs totalling £230,972 in 1999–2000, £271,228 in 2000–01, and £249,030 in 2001–02 to date. The records for 1998–99 do not readily distinguish legal costs from other running costs—a disproportionate effort would be required to produce the information requested.
