On the assumption that the hon. Member is using the definition of an advisory non-departmental public body adopted for the document "Public Bodies 1993", there are no such bodies which fall to be listed.

Mr. Kilfoyle

To ask the Secretary of State for Education if he will list any advisory bodies which he has set up in his Department since the publication of "Public Bodies 1993."

Mr. Boswell

None.
