HC Deb 22 November 1995 vol 267 c165W
35. Mr. Nigel Griffiths

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will review the work of civil servants in the Scottish Office in dealing with matters affecting the political party in government. [809]

Mr. Michael Forsyth

The rules about civil servants participating in party political matters are clear and rigorously enforced. There is therefore no need for me to review the work of civil servants in the Scottish Office regarding such matters.
