Mr. Dalyell
To ask the Minister for the Civil Service, pursuant to his answer of 5 March, what action he is taking on the issue of the obligations to the Crown in Parliament, as a result of the meeting on 7 February, when the head of the home Civil Service met the Civil Service unions.
Mr. Luce
No such action is necessary. The constitutional position of civil servants remains unchanged; civil servants are responsible to Ministers and Ministers are responsible to Parliament.
