HC Deb 18 January 1988 vol 125 cc497-8W
Mr. Teddy Taylor

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will raise with the European Commission the implications for its policy on the appointment of staff to senior positions in its national offices of the appointment of Mr. Jorgen Hansen to a post in its Welsh office; what is Mr. Hansen's salary; and if he will make a statement.

Mrs. Chalker

There is no reason to raise the appointment of the new head of the European Community Commission's press and information office in Wales with the Commission. Such appointments are an internal matter for the Commission. The salary will be £1,998 per month.
