HC Deb 17 January 1995 vol 252 c413W
Mr. Milburn

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment how many of the individuals appointed by his Department to public positions in the last year were first identified by the Public Appointments Unit.

Sir Paul Beresford

No central record is maintained of the sources of names of appointees and in some cases they may have been nominated from more than one source. However, from the information readily available, it appears that three of the individuals appointed during 1994 were first identified by the Public Appointments Unit.
