§ Mr. Canavanasked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he has a list of people whom he considers to be suitable for appointment as reporters to local inquiries into reports of the Boundary Commission for Scotland; and if he will publish the names of those people and their qualifications.
§ Mr. RifkindMy right hon. Friend does not have such a list. It is the practice to appoint the sheriffs principal for the regions concerned when this can suitably be arranged. When it cannot, leading members of the Bar are appointed.
