HC Deb 31 March 1999 vol 328 c724W
23. Mr. Chope

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what representations he has received regarding employment opportunities for non-Welsh speakers. [78081]

Mr. Michael

I have personally received no such representations.

Since I took office, my officials have received one such representation. My Department has also dealt with one representation made to the Deputy Prime Minister, and is dealing with one made to the Prime Minister.

Following the transfer of functions, this issue will be a matter for the National Assembly.
