§ Mrs. FyfeTo ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will make it his policy to collect information on the political affiliation of appointees to national health service trusts.
§ Mr. Lang[holding answer 10 December 1993]: No. Such information has no relevance to the contribution of appointees to the work of NHS trusts, although I did invite the leaders of all the Scottish parliamentary parties in July 1992 to submit nominations for trust membership.
