HC Deb 16 December 1971 vol 828 c183W
79. Mr. Roy Hughes

asked the Secretary of State for Wales if, before appointing members of the Local Government Boundary Commission for Wales under the terms of the Local Government Bill, he will first consult with the trade union movement to ensure that this body is adequately represented.

Mr. Peter Thomas

The Commission wil lbe chosen from people with experience or knowledge of local government. But it will not be representative of particular interests, and to consult on the lines suggested by the hon. Member would be inappropriate.
