HC Deb 08 May 1984 vol 59 c352W
18. Mr. Nellist

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will give the total number of positions previously nominated or elected locally to which his Department now makes appointments compared with 1979; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Fowler

As no figures of this kind were kept in 1979, I regret that the information is not held centrally.
