HC Deb 21 January 1987 vol 108 c570W
Mr. Alfred Morris

asked the Secretary of State for Energy if he will list all the public bodies for which he is responsible on which the consideration of the appointment or co-option of a person with knowledge of disability is a statutory requirement; if he will name the persons so appointed or co-opted on each body; and if he will indicate which of those persons is a person with a disability.

Mr. Peter Walker

There are no such statutory requirements relating to the public bodies for which I am responsible. British Coal, the area electricity boards, BNFL and the UKAEA 11 included references in their latest annual reports indicating their willingness to employ disabled people.
