HC Deb 24 July 1980 vol 989 c314W
Mr. Wigley

asked the Minister for the Civil Service if he will introduce legislation which will require the Parliamentary Commissioner for Administration to make copies of his reports available to trade unions which might have a valid interest in a case which has been investigated.

Mr. Channon

The Parliamentary Commissioner's duty is to report to the hon. Member concerned or to Parliament itself. It would be inappropriate to legislate in the way the hon. Member has suggested.
