HC Deb 23 January 1976 vol 903 c612W
Mr. Wrigglesworth

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will give details of the numbers and salaries of the extra public relations and information officers recruited by his Department and agencies for which it is responsible between 1970–71 and 1974–75.

Mr. Mulley

Public relations officers are not employed, but information officers undertake a wide range of services including publications and Press relations. Numbers fell by two in my Department and remained constant at the Victoria and Albert Museum; none was employed at the Science Museum and University Grants Committee.
