Mr. Hanson
To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he intends to issue guidance to new unitary authorities with regard to arrangements for staff who will be employed by more than one authority following reorganisation. [5412]

My right hon. Friend has no plans to issue such guidance,. It is for local authorities to advise their employees on matters relating to their employment and to comply with relevant employment legislation.
