Treasury Solicitor's Framework Document

HC Deb 22 May 2002 vol 386 c368W

Kali Mountford

To ask the Solicitor-General what changes the Attorney-General plans to make in the Treasury Solicitor's framework document. [58711]

The Solicitor-General

In his quinquennial review of the Treasury Solicitor's Department, Sir Quentin Thomas recommended that the framework document for the Treasury Solicitor's Department should be revised to provide the agency with the flexibilities it required to continue to meet the growing demand for efficient and high quality legal services from Government Departments and other publicly funded bodies in England and Wales. I am pleased to announce the publication of a revised framework document, a copy of which I have placed in the Library.

The framework document has also been published on the Treasury Solicitor's website (www.treasury-solicitor.gov.uk).
