HL Deb 16 July 1996 vol 574 c51WA
Lord Lester of Herne Hill

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Further to the Answer given by Baroness Blatch on 2nd July (WA 100), why the terms and conditions of service there referred to differ from the conditions of service set out in the recruitment information brief issued on 31st July 1995 for candidates for the post of Her Majesty's Chief Inspector of Prisons.

The Minister of State, Home Office (Baroness Blatch)

The recruitment information brief contained a brief summary of the conditions of service applying to the appointment of HM Chief Inspector of Prisons. Detailed conditions of service were set out in a schedule sent to General Sir David Ramsbotham at the time he was offered the appointment. My reply of 2nd July quoted from this schedule.
