Ministerial Written Statements Summer 2008: The Final Batch
- The Season to examine Ministerial Written Statements for Smuggled Proposals
- Ministerial Written Statements Summer 2008: The Final Batch
- How do the public access reports “placed in the House of Commons Library”?
A brief update to my previous posting.
On the last day of the Parliamentary Session, another 46 Ministerial Written Statements were released. That makes 98 since last Thursday.
To be fair, that is less than last-year’s 117 in the last 3 days.
Some nuggets:
* Planning Inspectorate Annual Report and Accounts 2007-08.
* Equitable Life - again.
* Free Cash Machines (Low-income Areas). Provide 600 new free cash machines in poor areas. Is PO closure negating this programme?
* Food: Poultry Register
* EU: Financial Management and Fraud
* Revenue and Customs: The next stage in the reorganisation. Looks relatively innocuous.
* Review of Civil Aviation Authority
* Local Transport Bill: “measures to improve public transport and tackle road congestion.”. Hmmm - one for Councillors.
* Annual Reports: Jobcentre Plus (HC 707), the Pension Service (HC 855), the Disability and Carers Service (HC 719), and the Rent Service (HC 729).
* The annual report and accounts of the Child Support Agency will be laid before the House shortly. (Does that mean during the break? - or is that shortly as in “next October”.)
Doubtless some innocuous, but others ….
