Lord Williams of Elvel
asked Her Majesty's Government:Whether a chairman and board members will be recruited for the Food Standards Agency in preparation of the agency's vesting day. [HL4034]
Baroness Hayman
This work is in hand. Parliamentary approval for the recruitment and current year fee and accommodation costs of the chairman and members of the Food Standards Agency will be sought in a Supplementary Estimate for the Department of Health Class II, Vote 2. Pending that approval, urgent expenditure estimated at £600,000 will be met by repayable advances from the Contingencies Fund.
