To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster what representations he has received on his better government programme. [35830]

I have received many positive and interesting contributions on my Better Government programme. In addition to individual letters and meetings, I have held a series of seminars with a wide range of participants from academia, local government, the public, private and voluntary sectors, and user and staff representatives. The Parliamentary Secretary has also held a series of workshop with front-line staff, around the UK, to feed in their ideas.
