§ Mr. Stonehouseasked the Attorney-General if he will list in the Official Report the names, ages, dates of appointment and salaries of the present officials in the Directorate of Public Prosecutions.
§ The Attorney-GeneralThe names and salaries of the officials of the Department of the Director of Public Prosecutions are published annually in the Civil Service Year Book. It is not the practice to make available personal information relating to civil servants.
§ Mr. Stonehouseasked the Attorney-General if the speech of the Director of Public Prosecutions at Durham 8W University, advocating that accused persons should be made to speak to police officers without their solicitors being present, was made with his approval.
§ The Attorney-GeneralNo. I would not normally require the Director to submit for my approval the contents of a speech expressing his personal views in the course of a university debate. I am informed, however, that he did not express the view attributed to him in the Question.
