HC Deb 23 May 1988 vol 134 c13W
Mr. John

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science how many civil servants in his Department are also directors or consultants in(a) public liability companies, (b) companies limited by guarantee, (c) building societies, (d) other friendly societies and (e) commercial undertakings other than the above; and what rules or instructions govern these activities with particular reference to remuneration.

Mrs. Rumbold

This information is not available. Full-time officers are not allowed to accept any post in the management of any society, firm or company which requires attendance at any time during working hours. They should not undertake any outside activity which might impair their usefulness as public servants or conflict with the interests of their department.

Records of such directorships as are held within these rules are not kept.
