HC Deb 17 November 1992 vol 214 cc139-40W
Mr. McAllion

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will place in the Library a copy of Cadw's health and safety policy.

Sir Wyn Roberts

Responsibility for the subject of the question has been delegated to Cadw: Welsh Historic Monuments under its chief executive, Mr. John Carr. I have asked him to arrange for a reply to be given.

Letter from E. A. J. Carr to Mr. John McAllion, dated 17 November 1992:

The Secretary of State has asked me to reply to the recent Parliamentary Question in which you asked if he would place a copy of Cadw's Health and Safety Policy in the Library of the House.

The framework document for the Agency delegates to me responsibility for ensuring the health and safety of its staff and the public who are affected by its work. We have not, however, adopted a policy separate from that of the Welsh Office's written statement setting out its approach to health and safety.

I enclose a copy of that statement.
