HC Deb 26 June 1984 vol 62 cc433-4W
Mr. William Ross

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if he will list the membrs of the Staff Commission for Education and Library Boards whom he has appointed since May 1979, together with their occupational background and political and religious affiliations, where known, and their geographical base; and if he will give the same information about those whom they replaced.
