HC Deb 29 March 1976 vol 908 c331W
Mr. Alexander Fletcher

asked the Minister for the Civil Service if he is planning to close or reduce the operations of the Civil Service Training College in Edinburgh.

Mr. Beith

asked the Minister for the Civil Service whether the public expenditure cuts recently announced will affect the future of the Edinburgh centre of the Civil Service College.

Mr. Dalyell

asked the Minister for the Civil Service what proposals he has to close down the Civil Service College in Edinburgh; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Charles R. Morris

As part of the Government's intention to reduce expenditure on staff and related administrative costs announced in the White Paper on Public Expenditure in 1979–80, I am considering a number of areas of possible savings within my own Department. No decisions have yet been taken.
