HC Deb 25 January 1977 vol 924 cc524-5W
Mr. Lee

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he is now in a position to complete filling of vacancies on the Race Relations Commission; and if, in doing so, he will bear in mind the need to appoint West Indians and Asiatic persons from places outside the London area.

Mr. Merlyn Rees

I hope to announce the full membership of the Commission for Racial Equality shortly. In making appointments I shall have in mind the need to include people with a wide range of relevant experience and background.
