HC Deb 01 May 2001 vol 367 cc590-1W
Mr. Wyatt

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions when he will place the register of interests of the board members of the Regional Development Agencies in the Library. [159526]

Ms Beverley Hughes

[holding answer 30 April 2001]: The English Regional Development Agencies' (RDAs) registers of members interests are the responsibility of the RDAs themselves and are available to the public on request. As such, the Secretary of State is not in a position to place them in the Library of the House.

The Devolved Administrations are responsible for development agencies outside England (eg Scottish Enterprise, Welsh Development Agency).
