HC Deb 24 January 1977 vol 924 c447W
Mr. Arnold

asked the Attorney-General (1) whether he will list those tribunals with administrative powers from which there is a right of appeal;

(2) whether he will list those tribunals with administrative powers from which the sole right of appeal is to a Minister;

(3) whether he will list those tribunals with administrative powers from which there is no right of appeal.

The Attorney-General

This information is not readily available in the form sought by the hon. Member, but my noble Friend will write to him.

Mr. Arnold

asked the Attorney-General what consideration has been given to enabling the Council on Tribunals to modify the decision of an administrative tribunal.

The Attorney-General

None. The council was set up to supervise the constitution and working of the tribunals within its jurisdiction and it performs a most useful function in that respect. It would be neither desirable nor practicable to give it the powers of an appellate body.
