HC Deb 20 July 1976 vol 915 c443W
Mr. McCrindle

asked the Prime Minister if he will set up a Royal Commission to investigate and report upon the existing methods of selection of persons serving on commissions and inquiries and to recommend improvements.

The Prime Minister

No. Ministers are accountable to this House for the appointments they make and the way in which they make them. I am generally satisfied with the present arrangements, and the House has already been told about steps being taken to widen the field of selection.
