HC Deb 03 July 1995 vol 263 c33W
Mr. Jim Cunningham

To ask the Secretary of State for Education what plans she has to review the disclosure of information requirements on non-departmental public bodies with particular reference to the Further Education Funding Council. [30152]

Mr. Boswell

My right hon. Friend endorses the recommendations of the Committee on Standards in Public Life which propose the adoption by executive non-departmental public bodies of the 1994 "Code of Practice on Access to Government Information" together with the committee's own guidelines. The Further Education Funding Council has published for consultation a draft code on access to information which is in accordance with the committee's proposals.
