§ Mr. Spearingasked the Secretary of State for the Environment if, in publicising the names of persons appointed as members of the new regional water authorities, he will indicate those persons who are members of the interim steering committees or management groups of those authorities.
§ Mr. Eldon GriffithsThis is a matter for the internal administration of the regional water authorities.
§ Mr. Spearingasked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will state the dates on which each of the new regional water authorities had their first meetings, stating the cases where at the 68W time of the first meeting not all the members of any regional authority had been appointed, and stating the circumstances in any such case.
§ Mr. Graham PageThe dates of the first meetings of the water authorities were as follows:
North West 3rd August Anglian 8th August Northumbrian 8th August Wessex 10th August South West 15th August Thames 22nd August Severn Trent 30th August Yorkshire 30th August Southern 31st August The South West and the Wessex authorities had complete membership at the time of their first meeting.
In the case of the Northumbrian authority the ministerial appointments were complete and in the case of the Thames authority the local government members were all present.
As regards my right hon. and learned Friend's appointments, some places remained vacant because the original invitees had declined.
