§ Mr. ByersTo ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what steps his Department is taking to achieve investor in people status; when it started the process; when it expects to achieve investor in people status; and if he will make a statement. [2976]
§ Mr. HanleyThe personnel and security command of the diplomatic wing is committed to seeking investor in people recognition and expects to be able to do so in April 1996. We regard this as a pilot project which, if successful, might lead to investor in people status later being sought by other commands and divisions of the diplomatic wing.
The aid wing is committed to achieving investor in people status, has completed initial diagnostic work and engaged an adviser.
