HC Deb 09 May 1991 vol 190 cc585-6W
Mr. Tony Lloyd

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment what discussions he has had with the chairman of the Health and Safety Commission about the effect of inflation on the level of activity of the Health and Safety Commission; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Forth

None. Once again, the Government have met in full the Health and Safety Commission's request for funds for the current financial year. In his letter to the Secretary of State enclosing the plan of work for 1991–92 and beyond, the commission's chairman confirmed that these funds enable the commission to take forward its plan of work for this financial year with no additional bid for resources. The plan of work will be published later this month.
