§ Mr. LlwydTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales what percentage of public appointments made by his Department were held by women, at the most recent date for which figures are available; and if he will make a statement. [29596]
§ Mr. HagueThe most recent information about appointments that I make is set out in "Appointments by the Secretary of State for Wales, 1 March 1996", which is available in the Library of the House. The summary of appointments by gender included in the preface shows that 28 per cent. of appointments were held by women.
