HC Deb 27 April 1995 vol 258 cc627-8W
Mr. Macdonald

To ask the Attorney-General if he will list the number and location of Government Property Lawyers offices closed and the number of jobs lost or transferred as a result of agency work transferring from Scotland to the rest of the United Kingdom over the past five years and if he will list the number and location of offices opened and jobs gained in Scotland as the result of agency work transferring to Scotland from the rest of the United Kingdom over the same period. [19970]

The Attorney-General

I have responsibility for the Government Property Lawyers, which is an agency of the Treasury Solicitor's Department, whose remit extends only to England and Wales. It follows that no work of that agency has been or would be transferred either to or from Scotland.
