HC Deb 21 June 1972 vol 839 c103W
41. Mrs. Joyce Butler

asked the Lord President of the Council when he expects to appoint the remaining member of the Population Panel in accordance with the statement made on 23rd November last.

Mr. R. Carr

As announced by my predecessor on 22nd March, it has been decided not to appoint an additional member.

42. Sir Gilbert Longden

asked the Lord President of the Council when he expects a report from the Population Panel; and if he will request it to make an interim statement.

Mr. R. Carr

The Panel has been asked to report by the end of the year. To ask it to make an interim statement would be liable to hold up its report which we do not want to delay.
