§ Mr. Gordon PrenticeTo ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster if he will list those non-governmental bodies in which absence from meetings over a specified period entails loss of membership.
§ Mr. WaldegraveIn some cases, the legislation governing executive non-departmental public bodies gives Ministers the power to remove members from office if they have been absent from meetings without permission for longer than a specified period. However, we do not hold specific information on this issue centrally in relation to the position of each individual NDPB.
