HC Deb 09 March 1987 vol 112 cc48-9W
Mrs. Dunwoody

asked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster if he will list the numbers of entrants to his Department from the ethnic minorities in the years 1985–86 and 1986–87; if he will also list the monitoring procedures used to ascertain the percentage of the work force represented by ethnic minorities and their patterns of promotion; and what are his methods of recruitment of minorities into the Department.

Mr. Tebbit

The Duchy of Lancaster is not a Government Department. The staff is my private office are covered by the arrangements applying to the Cabinet Office, for which the Prime Minister has answered. I would refer the hon. Member to the answer given by my right hon. Friend the Prime Minister on Friday 6 March 1987.
