HC Deb 15 December 1994 vol 251 c768W
Mr. Cousins

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport when he expects the present road programme director to leave his service; what severance terms and conditions have been agreed; and what assurances the director has given about subsequent employment by companies with a present or planned commercial interest in road design, build or management contracts.

Mr. Watts

I expect the present road programme director to leave the Highways Agency in summer 1995. The severance terms will be those provided for in the principal civil service pension scheme for staff who leave on early retirement. Any proposals from the current road programme director regarding subsequent employment will be subject to the terms of the business appointment rules as they apply to officials at grade 3 level in the civil service.
