HC Deb 14 February 2002 vol 380 c680W
Mr. Gordon Marsden

To ask the Solicitor-General what proportion of directly employed Government legal advisers have had previous specialist experience of contract law in private practice. [32905]

The Solicitor-General

Government lawyers are recruited from all fields. They include those who have experience of contract law in private practice. However, such information is not collated and the proportions required could be found only involving a disproportionate cost.
