§ 62. Mr. Blenkinsopasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government what appointments he has recently made to the National Parks Commission; and why he has failed to maintain proper representation of open-air interests.
§ Mr. MarplesMr. Clyde Higgs, a farmer; Mr. Alan Lubbock, vice-chairman of the Hampshire County Council; Mr. D. Francis Morgan, a 21W member of the Council of the Boy Scout Association; Mr. W. H. Vaughan, a member of the Forestry Commission. My right hon. Friend does not agree that he has failed to maintain proper representation of open-air interests; though he would add that people are not appointed to the Commission as representatives of any interests or bodies, but for the general contribution they can make to the problems with which the Commission has to deal.
