To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will arrange to place in the Library the business plans of the executive agencies which come within his Department's responsibilities.
I am arranging for copies of the current corporate plans to be placed in the Library for Accounts Branch—now Accounts Services Agency—and for the Patent Office executive agency, together with the summary corporate plan for Companies House executive agency.In cases where commercial confidentiality, or the need to protect other sensitive information means it is not possible to make an agency's corporate plan public, information about its corporate strategy should be available from the annual report. In addition to the statutory reports required to be laid before Parliament, I am arranging for copies of the most recent annual reports to be placed in the Library for the following agencies:
Insolvency Service Executive Agency.
Laboratory of the Government Chemist Executive Agency.
National Engineering Laboratory Executive Agency.
National Physical Laboratory Executive Agency.
National Weights and Measures Laboratory Executive Agency.
Radiocommunications Executive Agency.
Warren Spring Laboratory Executive Agency.
