HC Deb 16 January 1995 vol 252 c362W
Mr. Milburn

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food which of the members of his think tank on CAP reform were first identified by the Public Appointments Unit.

Mr. Jack

None of the members of the CAP policy group were identified by the public appointments unit. Members were recruited from among contacts known to the Department, on the basis of their individual ideas and reputation for imaginative thinking, as well as their practical experience.
