§ Mr. Jonathan EvansNo central register is kept in this Dapartment of company directorships held by serving civil servants. However, members of staff are required to declare to senior management any commercial interest they may have. This requirement is set out in the Department's personnel management manual. Senior officials are not aware of any such declarations having been made by current members of staff. More detailed research would involve the examination of individual personal files and could be obtained only at a disproportionate cost.
