HC Deb 11 March 1993 vol 220 c650W
Mr. Richards

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will issue guidance to contractors and public authorities on the application of the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 1981 to the market testing of public services in Wales.

Mr. David Hunt

My right hon. Friend, the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster—has today placed in the Library of the House guidance on the implications for market testing of the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations.

I hope that all those engaged in market testing, including contractors, will find the guidance helpful.
