To ask the Attorney-General what information he has regarding the decision of the Crown prosecution service not to proceed with the case against David Holt for the alleged manslaughter of George Kenyon on 24 May 1988.

The decision not to proceed with the case against David Holt for the alleged manslaughter of George Kenyon followed a review of the case against him after the case was committed for trial. The Crown prosecution service accepted the advice of leading counsel that there was not a realistic prospect of satisfying a jury beyond reasonable doubt that Mr. Holt was guilty of

To ask the Attorney-General what provisions exist for bringing forward the dates of appeal hearings when there have been significant delays by foreign embassies in forwarding appeal papers for the immigration appellate authorities.

The immigration appellate authorities give full consideration to all applications made to them from either party for the early hearing of any appeal.

To ask the Attorney-General whether he has received any representations regarding the case against David Holt and Norman Holt for the alleged manslaughter of George Kenyon on 24 May 1988; and if he will make a statement.

Prior to receiving the hon. Member's question, I have received representations in correspondence from two hon. Members regarding the case against David Holt and Norman Holt for the alleged manslaughter of George Kenyon.

To ask the Attorney-General if he will list the immigration appellate authorities in the United Kingdom, together with the numbers of appeals considered by each of them in each of the past five years for which figures are available.

The information requested is set out in the table.

To ask the Attorney-General (1) what representations he has received from (a) the Metropolitan police, (b) the Serious Fraud Office and (c) sponsor Departments for further computer runs to detect illegal multiple share applications in the privatisation of (a) British Gas, (b) British Airports, (c) British Airways, (d) British Steel and (e) the 10 regional water and sewerage companies;(2) when he expects to see completed all inquiries into illegal multiple share applications in the privatisation of

The fraud investigation group of the Crown prosecution service has worked in liaison with the Metropolitan and City police commercial fraud squad to identify and investigate possible criminal offences arising out of multiple applications submitted in the course of the issue of shares for British Gas plc, British Airways plc, Rolls-Royce plc, British Airports Authorities plc and the 10 regional water companies. In each case they have had the assistance of a report by the auditors appointed for the issue by the sponsor Department. It is accompanied by computerised data. The majority of cases arising from the earlier issues have been concluded; most of those relating to the water privatisation issues remain outstanding.It is, however, the practice of the CPS and the police when considering suspect cases relating to the water issue to examine all available data relating to earlier issues to ascertain whether any previous dealing by the suspect is revealed which may be relevant to either the evidential or public interest aspect of the decision whether to prosecute. The computerised data are held by the police and are freely accessible by them.

To ask the Prime Minister (1) what is her estimate, to the latest available date, of the total numbers of persons in (a) Scotland, (b) England and (c) Wales who have not registered their names in connection with the poll tax; and if she will make a statement;(2) what action has been taken to warn people in Scotland, England and Wales of the implications of failure to register for poll tax purposes for the appearance of names on the electoral registers.

The community charges register and the electoral register are separate entities and are compiled with reference to different criteria and for different purposes. There is no question of anyone being denied the right to vote simply because their name does not appear on the community charges register. I refer the hon. Member to the full answer being given today to him on this subject by my right hon. and learned Friend the Home Secretary and to the reply I gave the hon. Member for Derbyshire, North-East (Mr. Barnes) on 15 November 1990 at column 703.

To ask the Prime Minister if she will list all visits of Government Ministers or officials to Malaysia, with dates, since 1979.

A record of visits by officials is available only at a disproportionate cost.

To ask the Prime Minister which Minister is responsible for decisions as to the rules governing liability of sub-post offices to the uniform business rate.

Policy on non-domestic rating, including the valuation hypothesis used in determining rateable values which is set out in the Local Government Finance Act 1988, is the responsibility of my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for the Environment. The assessment of rateable values is undertaken by the Inland Revenue valuation office, responsibility for which rests with my right hon. Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer.

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy (1) what arrangements he has agreed for cost recovery by the electricity distribution companies for actions undertaken by them in response to directions from him under section 96 of the Electricity Act 1989 in connection with the outbreak of war in the Gulf;

My Department has had discussions with the Office of Electricity Regulation on the subject of cost recovery in the event of electricity supply emergencies. I see no connection with the possibility of war in the Gulf.There are no formal arrangements for cost recovery in the event of directions under the Energy Act 1976 or section 96(1)(b) of the Electricity Act 1989. The director general has said that in the event of such directions being given there would be a strong case for considering favourably a request from any company or companies affected for suspension or modification of particular licence requirements to allow them to recover costs necessarily incurred.

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy what policy considerations led him to conclude his agreement with the leading underwriters in the privatisation of the electricity distribution industry to insert a force majeure clause relating to the risk of war breaking out in the Gulf.

My right hon. Friend decided that the satisfactory underwriting of the sale of shares in the 12 regional electricity companies required specific arrangements to deal with the particular risk of hostilities in the Gulf causing a fall in the market during the offer period. Failure to make such arrangements would, at best, have adversely increased the cost of underwriting and reduced the proceeds from the sale.

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy if he will insert a Gulf war risk warning on the advertisements for the flotation of the electricity distribution companies.

The purpose of the advertising campaigns is to publicise the offers for sale of the 12 regional electricity companies. All such advertising contains a warning that shares can go down as well as up and the public should consult an appropriate professional financial adviser if they need advice.

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy what assessment he has made of the impact of a direction under section 96 of the Electricity Act on the profitability and cash flow of the 12 regional electricity companies.

None.

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy when he next expects to meet the 12 chairmen of the area boards to discuss emergency arrangements arising from a possible outbreak of war in the Gulf and its impact on electricity costs and prices and their companies' cash flow and profitability.

My right hon. Friend and I meet the regional electricity company chairmen from time to time to discuss a wide range of issues.

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy when he last met or next expects to meet the Director General of Electricity Supply to review the cost recovery and audit mechanisms in the fuel security code.

I have not met, and have no plans to meet, the Director General of Electricity Supply for this purpose.

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy what discussions he has had in the last three weeks with the National Grid Company regarding the implementation of the fuel security code and of directions under section 96 of the Electricity Act.

None.

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy (1) what discussions he has had with the 12 chairmen of area electricity boards regarding the sale of their appliance retailing chains and Government participation in the receipts thereof;(2) what policy considerations led him to exempt sales of the appliance retailing chains from the property clawback arrangements in the privatisation of the electricity distribution companies.

The regional electricity company—REC—prospectus includes relevant information on the retailing businesses including the directors' view of the prospects for those businesses. I expect to get appropriate value for the taxpayer for all parts of the RECs' business on flotation and see no reason why the Government should expect to participate in any subsequent disposal of the retailing business as a going concern.

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy when he anticipates receiving a letter of comfort from the competition directorate of the European Commission regarding the exemption of the coal supply contracts between British Coal, National Power and PowerGen from article 85(3) of the treaty of Rome.

The coal purchase contracts between British Coal and National Power and PowerGen were notified to the European Commission by British Coal. British Coal has received a letter from the Commission's directorate-general for competition indicating that it is preparing a draft decision for the Commission to exempt these agreements under article 85(3) of the treaty of Rome.

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy (1) when he next expects to announce the commencement of enhanced prices for coal produced by the members of the South Wales Small Mines Association, pursuant to his conditional letter of offer to the association dated 24 October;(2) what response he will be making to the comments dated 30 October of the director of the competition directorate of the European Commission on his letter of offer of enhanced coal prices dated 24 October to the South Wales Small Mines Association.

The offer made by National Power and British Coal to the South Wales Small Mines Association was set out in a paper handed to the association on 24 October at a meeting in my Department. The European Commission's view of the terms of this offer was conveyed in a letter dated 30 October addressed to the solicitors representing the association. I understand that members of the association have voted to reject the offer. It will now be for the Commission to reach a decision on the complaint made by the association which gave rise to the recent negotiations. My Department stands ready to provide the Commission with any further information or assistance it may need.

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy when he last met and next expects to meet the chairman of Nuclear Electric to discuss the contract with the Non-Fossil Purchasing Agency on behalf of the regional electricity companies for purchasing electricity from the Sizewell B nuclear power station.

This is a commercial matter and I have no plans to discuss it with the chairman of Nuclear Electric.

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy when he next expects to meet the Director General of Electricity Supply to discuss the Director General of Electricity Supply's study into the environmental impact of renewables projects, pursuant to page 46 of the pathfinder prospectus for the flotation of the electricity distribution companies.

The Director General of Electricity Supply's study of the environmental impact of renewables projects was made in the context of a review of the draft contracts submitted to him by the 12 regional electricity companies, and preparatory to advising the Secretary of State on the appropriate level of the first renewables order. As I informed the House on 30 October, Official Report, columns 443–44, my right hon. Friend set the level of the renewables order—SI 1990 No. 1859—in accordance with the director general's advice. In these circumstances my right hon. Friend has no plans further to discuss the director general's advice with him.

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy when he expects to make a further non-fossil fuel obligation order in respect of projects involving renewable energy sources.

My right hon. Friend intends to bring forward the first additional renewables tranche of the non-fossil fuel obligation next year.

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy when he next intends to introduce an order under the Electricity Act in respect of permitted generating capacity from renewable energy sources.

My right hon. Friend intends to bring forward the first additional order for the non-fossil fuel obligation in respect of renewables next year.

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy what action he is taking to review the basis on which the Director General of Electricity Supply determined the inclusion of particular schemes in the non-fossil fuel obligation.

The object of the director general's review of the schemes submitted to him was to assess whether they were likely to be capable of being qualifying arrangements, under the provisions of section 33 of the Electricity Act 1989, for the purpose of the renewables order that the Secretary of State proposed to make. The Government have no plans to amend those provisions.

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy when he next expects to meet the 12 chairmen of the regional electricity companies to discuss a strengthening of the role of Non-Fossil Purchasing Agency, pursuant to page 135 of the pathfinder prospectus for the flotation of the regional electricity companies.

The NFPA is the agent of the 12 regional electricity companies, and this is therefore a matter for them.

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy if he will make a statement on the life expectancy of Calder Hall and Chapelcross nuclear power stations.

This is an operational matter for British Nuclear Fuels plc—BNFL—subject to any safety requirements stipulated by the Health and Safety Executive's nuclear installations inspectorate—NII. In the report on British Nuclear Fuels plc's long-term safety review of Calder Hall and Chapelcross, published by the Health and Safety Executive on 23 April, the nuclear installations inspectorate concluded that the stations would be safe to operate until each reactor is 40 years old, subject to British Nuclear Fuels plc's completing a programme of work and to satisfactory results from the regular test and inspection programme required under the licensing system enforced by the nuclear installations inspectorate. The oldest reactor will reach 40 years in 1996, the youngest in 1999.I understand that it is British Nuclear Fuels plc's policy to continue to operate Calder Hall and Chapelcross as long as the stations remain safe and it is economic. The company believes continued operation beyond the 40 years assumed in the present nuclear installations inspectorate assessment could be economically justified. It will consider a further major safety review to support this view at the appropriate time.

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many women prison officers working in prisons in England and Wales hold the rank of principal officer; and if he will list the prisons.

There are 40 female principal officers, serving in the following prisons:

• Askham Grange
• Bullwood Hall
• Cookham Wood
• Drake Hall
• Feltham
• Full Sutton
• Garth
• Hatfield
• Hindley
• Holloway
• Leeds
• Low Newton
• The Mount
• Nottingham
• Risley
• Rochester
• Styal
• Wetherby

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will list the action that his Department has taken in any prison in England and Wales for which he has received a report from the inspector of prisons; and if he will make a statement.

Since 1980 Her Majesty's chief inspector of prisons has made more than 130 reports to my right hon. and learned Friend on prison establishments in England and Wales. Information about action to implement the recommendations in these reports on individual establishments is set out in the statement we issue when the report is published, copies of which are placed, with the reports themselves, in the Library. Each one is followed up by prison service operational directors and subsequent developments are reported to the chief inspector.

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what are the numbers and types of complaint to the Police Complaints Authority in 1989 which relate solely or primarily to Waltham Forest.

The London borough of Waltham Forest lies within the Metropolitan police No. 1 area. Table 5 at appendix C of the Police Complaints Authority's 1989 annual report, a copy of which is in the Library, gives an analysis of the numbers and types of complaints dealt with by the authority in relation to No. 1 area. Figures which relate solely to Waltham Forest are not available.

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many people are serving on the Police Complaints Authority; how, and on what basis, they are appointed; and whether any are (a) women, (b) from black and ethnic minority communities and (c) people with disabilities.

The Police Complaints Authority currently comprises 15 members, including the chairman and two deputy chairmen. All the members, aside from the chairman, are appointed by my right hon. and learned Friend the Home Secretary following a careful selection procedure. The chairman is appointed by Her Majesty the Queen. The normal term of appointment is for three years in the first instance.Of the 15 members, two are women, three are from ethnic minority backgrounds and none is disabled.

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department which areas have (a) the greatest and (b) the lowest percentage of people sentenced at magistrates courts to receive prison sentences; what are the percentages in each area; and what is the pecentage in Waltham Forest.

The information is given in the table.This information is published annually in volume 5 of the criminal statistics, England and Wales, supplementary tables, copies of which are in the Library.

For the reasons set out in my reply to a question from

the hon. Member on 12 November at columns

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many affiliation orders have been granted in each of the last three years.

Affiliation orders ceased to be made from 31 March 1989 and orders for financial provision are now granted under the amended Guardianship of Minors Act 1971. Information for the period before such orders were abolished is given in the table.

Affiliation orders granted
Year	Number
1987	10,580
1988	11,410
19891	3,570

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence if he will provide for each year the number of service men who leave the armed services and subsequently return, the time lapse and the reasons, where known, for leaving and returning in each case.

Apart from the figures provided in the table for non-commissioned male personnel who rejoined in the last 10 years, having previously served in the armed forces, the information requested is not readily available and could be obtained only at disproportionate cost.

1 The Royal Navy count as re-entrants only personnel who could complete 22 years pensionable service.
2 The Royal Marines count as re-entrants only personnel who could complete their engagement of 9, 14 or 22 years, as appropriate.
3 The Army count as re-entrants only personnel with existing reserve liabilities ie "rejoining reservists".
4 The Royal Air Force count as re-entrants only personnel who were in the Service on full duty in the 5 years prior to rejoining.

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what agreements exist with the German Government covering basing arrangements in Germany for present and future nuclear weapons.

The 1954 "Presence of Foreign Forces Convention" (Cmd 9617) provides the legal basis for the presence of all British forces in Germany, apart from Berlin.

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence (1) if he will give details of the costs to the NATO infrastructure fund of transporting cascaded equipment; and what the United Kingdom proportion of this will be;(2) if he will give details of the NATO cascade programme of equipment limited under the prospective CFE treaty;(3) what is the cost to Britain of cascading equipment.

I refer the hon. Member to the answer given to the hon. Member for Woolwich (Mr. Cartwright) on 14 March 1990 at column 290. The alliance is still examining the opportunities for transferring surplus equipment to other nations and the extent to which the costs incurred can be met from NATO common funding. No decisions have been taken and we do not yet know what costs, if any, may fall to the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom currently contributes 12 per cent. of the costs of the NATO infrastructure programme.

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence (1) whether the agreements in START differentiating strategic from tactical air-to-surface missiles have any relevance to United Kingdom policy on TASM; and if he will make a statement;(2) if the United Kingdom will limit the range of its proposed tactical air-to-surface missile so that it will not be defined as strategic according to current START rules.

The START negotiations are bilateral between the United States and the Soviet Union; British nuclear forces would, therefore, not be included in any agreement. Our choice of a TASM will be guided by the need to retain a credible and effective deterrent capability.

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence whether there has been any change in the Government's financial arrangements for the leasing of Trident D5 missiles.

The United Kingdom is not leasing Trident D5 missiles; it is purchasing them outright. The financial arrangements for their purchase remain unchanged.

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what was the cost of the 85 tonne crane installed in. HMS Challenger, including structural alterations to the ship.

A 30 tonne crane was fitted into HMS Challenger in September 1990. The acquisition and installation costs are commercial-in-confidence.

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence why a new 85 tonne crane was installed in HMS Challenger a few weeks before the ship was to be sold to commercial interests; and whether the cost of this crane and its installation will be fully reflected in the price being sought from prospective purchasers.

The crane had been bought some time before the decision was taken to decommission HMS Challenger. The Ministry of Defence will naturally endeavour to obtain the most competitive price possible for the ship from prospective purchasers.

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what steps he will take to ensure that the decision to dispose of HMS Challenger at the end of the current year will not adversely affect the security of the United Kingdom's strategic nuclear deterrent.

The disposal of HMS Challenger will not adversely affect the security of the United Kingdom's strategic nuclear deterrent.

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence how much has been spent to date on refitting HMS Churchill at Rosyth dockyard and over what period of time; and how much work would have to be done to allow the submarine's return to the active fleet.

I refer my hon. Friend to the answers given by my hon. Friend the Minister of State for the Armed Forces to the hon. Member for Clackmannan (Mr. O'Neill) on 15 November, Official Report, columns 195–98.

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence if he will list the dates on which all contracts for sales of military equipment from Britain to Malaysia were signed since 1979 and the date on which the exports were authorised.

It has been the consistent policy of successive Administrations not to provide details of defence exports to specific countries.

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence if he will give details of the limits imposed by the conventional forces in Europe treaty on the United Kingdom's holdings of treaty-limited equipment.

The CFE treaty imposes ceilings on the holdings of certain types of equipment by each group of states. It obliges the members of each group to agree a division of these collective ceilings among themselves, and to notify the other parties. The allocations thus agreed for each nation can thereafter be increased with the consent of other members of the same group. As a result of consultations with our alliance partners, we have agreed the following allocations for the United Kingdom, to apply once the reductions necessitated by the treaty have been completed:

	Number
Battle Tanks	1,015
Artillery	636
Armoured Combat Vehicles	3,176

	Number
Combat Aircraft	900
Attack Helicopters	384

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence if he will give details of the numbers and types of United Kingdom equipment covered by the conventional forces in Europe treaty and their location.

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry whether he has now decided to request a report on the affairs of Polly Peck International; whether he will investigate the role of the Serious Fraud Office in this matter; and if he will make a statement.

[holding answer 12 November 1990]: My right hon. Friend is in touch with the Serious Fraud Office and with the administrators of Polly Peck International plc both of whom are conducting investigations. If matters come to light in the course of those investigations or otherwise which need investigating under the Companies Act rather than by the Serious Fraud Office, he will not hesitate to investigage them.The Serious Fraud Office is accountable through its director to the Attorney-General and to Parliament.

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry to what extent EEC or national trade barriers of all types relating to products from eastern and central Europe have been reduced in the last 12 months.

[holding answer 15 November 1990]: The signing of bilateral trade and economic co-operation agreements between the EC and the USSR, GDR, Czechoslovakia, Bulgaria and Romania over the last 12 months, following earlier agreements with Poland and Hungary, completed a framework for commercial co-operation with the countries of central and eastern Europe. Agreements include a timetable for the elimination and suspension of quantitative import restrictions by the EEC on industrial and some agricultural imports from these countries. Import arrangements on MFA and ECSC products are covered by separate bilateral arrangements.The liberalisation measures provided for in the co-operation agreements have been accelerated on the initiative of the EEC under its aid programme for central and eastern Europe—PHARE. As a result the following measures have been taken by the EEC.

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if his Department has been invited to contribute to the symposium on European collaboration in advanced technology, organised by the Institute of European Trade and Technology, to be held in London on 16 November.

[holding answer 16 November 1990]: Yes. My Department has regular contacts with the Institute of European Trade and Technology and an official from my Department addressed this symposium on European opportunities for United Kingdom industry.

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what contribution was made by his Department to the conference on the European Communities ESPRIT programme, organised by ECCO at the Brussels congress centre from 12 to 15 November.

[holding answer 16 November 1990]: The ESPRIT conference in Brussels was organised by the European Commission and provides an opportunity for existing and potential participants in this European Community research and development programme to obtain information on ESPRIT. My officials took part in the conference and will continue to bring opportunities for participation to the attention of United Kingdom industry.

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will make it his policy to ensure that all cosmetic products have their ingredients listed in full on the pack aging in order to protect people with skin allergies.

[holding answer 16 November 1990]: The European Commission is about to publish proposals for full ingredient labelling of cosmetics throughout the European Community. I will consider them when they are published.

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will take steps urgently to investigate the health implications of the use of Cellacast; and if he will make a statement.

I have been asked to reply.A research assessment of splinting materials of this kind was carried out for the Department by a team from Salford university who reported in 1989. Their conclusion was that synthetic bandages are unlikely to cause a problem to either operators or patients unless cast removal is being performed for protracted periods in a particularly confined and unventilated environment. In the latter case, use of dust extraction equipment must be considered prudent.

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what has been the total expenditure in Dwyfor district on housing renovation and repair of (a) local authority housing stock and (b) private sector accommodation, in each of the past five years; and what is the projected expenditure level recognised by his Department for 1990–91 and 1991–92.

The information requested is given in the following table. Information for 1991–92 is not yet available.

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what measures he is proposing to improve the training of those involved in the food industry in Wales; and if he will make a statement.

A consultation document on hygiene training for food handlers was issued in December 1989 and the comments received are currently being assessed. The Government intend to issue the relevant regulations in due course.

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what information he has on the percentage change in retail sales in Wales for each of the last four quarters; and if he will make a statement.

Information is not available in the form requested.

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, further to his reply of 13 November, Official Report, column 106, whether he will review his policy with regard to the appointment of special advisers who have previously been parliamentary candidates; and whether he will make a statement on the operation of his current policy.

My right hon. Friend has nothing to add to the answer given to the hon. Gentleman on 13 November.

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will list to the most recent available date the number of measures agreed by the EEC and not yet passed into legislation by each of the member states, in rank order.

Figures on the records of individual EC member states in implementing all EC directives are unfortunately not centralised. However, the Commission keeps centralised figures on the implementation of the proposals contained in the original White Paper for a single market. The latest Commission report, produced in October shows that of 107 measures due to be implemented by end 1990, the following measures remained unimplemented in the member states:

	number
Denmark	15
United Kingdom	18
Germany	20

	number
Portugal	20
Spain	27
France	28
Ireland	31
Belgium	32
Netherlands	33
Luxembourg	35
Greece	44
Italy	62

Further details are given in the Department of Trade and Industry's document, "The Single Market: progress on Commission White Paper", which is available in the Library of the House.

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if he will estimate (a) the number of salmon available for sale in the United Kingdom in (i) 1970, (ii) 1980 and (iii) 1989 and (b) for each of those years, what percentage of salmon were (i) river caught, (ii) caught in offshore waters and (iii) from fish farms.

The information requested is not available in the level of detail sought. The total amount of salmon available for sale in the United Kingdom comprises wild, farmed and imported fish of a variety of species—Atlantic, Pacific, and so on. It is not possible to estimate reliably how much of the total domestic—Atlantic—catch may be offered for sale; further, records of imported salmon are not subdivided by number or species.Comprehensive statistics of wild Atlantic salmon reported as caught by rod, net and trap are published annually by the Fisheries Departments and copies are available in the Libraries of the House. From these it is possible to provide an estimate of the inland and coastal catches of Atlantic salmon. These are:

	Inland (tonnes)	Coastal
1970	1,191	968
1980	934	684
11989	817	555
1 provisional figure

Figures for estimated United Kingdom farmed Atlantic salmon production are:

	(tonnes)
1970	nil
1980	600
1989	29,000

Figures for the total United Kingdom imports of fresh, chilled and frozen salmon—all species—are:

	(tonnes)
1970	4,700
1980	5,112
11989	7,095
1 provisional figure

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what estimates are available of the number of bananas from the Windward Islands and Jamaica that would be bought in the United Kingdom if no trade preferences for those countries existed.

None. Our objective is an effective preferential arrangement after 1992, which will enable a continuing flow of bananas from the Caribbean, in line with the Community's commitments under the Lomé convention.

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food when a decision is likely to be taken in the European Community on trade arrangements for bananas after 1992; and by whom.

We cannot say when a decision will be taken as no proposals have yet come forward from the European Commission. The decision will be taken by the Council of Ministers.

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what proposals have been put forward by the European Community Commission on preferences for imports of bananas from the Windward Islands and Jamaica after 1992.

None.

To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food whether the United Kingdom's position on trade preferences for imports of bananas from the Windward Islands and Jamaica after 1992 has changed since Her Majesty's Government's discussion paper was produced.

The Government continue to believe that the framework set out in that discussion paper provides the best means yet identified for balancing the different interests that would be affected by common arrangements for bananas. Discussions of the best way forward continue with all interested parties.

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will give the annual figure for exports of goods and services, expressed in current price terms, as a percentage of gross domestic product since 1979 and for the first half of 1990; and if he will make a statement.

Information relating to the export of goods and services—current prices—as a proportion of gross domestic product can be found in table 1.2 of the 1990 edition of the CSO's "United Kingdom National Accounts" publication—the Blue Book—and in table B of the CSO's quarterly "Gross Domestic Product" press notice. Copies of both are available in the Library of the House or alternatively the data can be found on the CSO database which can be accessed through the Library.

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he has received any representations to assist banks and finance houses in respect of increased indebtedness resulting from property prices; and if he will make a statement.

My right hon. Friend receives representations from various sources about a range of subjects in the run-up to the Budget.

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what information he has on the levels of (a) personal debt and (b) company sector debt in 1988, 1989, 1990 and estimated for 1991; and what assessment he has made of the reasons for the changes in level.

Figures for the debt or financial liabilities of the personal sector and industrial and commercial companies are available up until the end of 1989 only. These data are set out in table 12.2 and 12.3 of "United Kingdom National Accounts"—the CSO Blue Book, 1990 edition.

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will list for each year since 1979 (a) the total tax revenue and (b) the total of all income to the Exchequer since 1979; and if he will also list it on the basis of (i) 1979 and (ii) 1989 prices.

Information as is readily available is included on the CSO database in the following series—identified by their database code:ATAB:

To ask the Chancellor of theExchequer if he will make a statement setting out

(a) The policy implications of the European Commission proposals covering indirect tax harmonisation and intra-Community trade statistics are detailed in the explanatory memoranda submitted by HM Customs and Excise and the Central Statistical Office respectively. Copies of the memoranda are available in the Library of the House.

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer when the old 5p coin will be demonetised following the introduction of the new 5p coin.

The old 5p coin will be demonetised and cease to be legal tender after 31 December 1990. Although it will not be possible for the general public to spend old 5p coins after that date, it will still be possible to return them by paying them in through the high street banks for a limited period.

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer (1) what general guidelines are issued for setting the salaries of personal ministerial advisers;(2) whether the salary guidelines in connection with the appointment of ministerial personal advisers include annual uprating by reference to the retail prices index;(3) whether he will review the guidelines for the salaries paid to personal ministerial advisers to ensure earnings as advisers do not exceed earnings in previous employment;(4) what are the guidelines for setting salaries for Ministers' personal advisers, where those appointed were previously self-employed.

[holding answer 16 November 1990]: There is a pay spine for ministerial special advisers. The starting point on that spine for each adviser is assessed primarily by reference to the individual's recent normal earnings: this is taken as evidence of the "market rate". There is flexibility to go above this exceptionally if there is evidence that an individual's recent earnings have been less than his or her normal market expectation or that the individual could have expected to increase his or her remuneration in the near future if they did not accept the appointment. These guidelines apply to all advisers, including those who were previously self-employed and I have no plans to revise them. The pay spine is revalued annually in line with the general increase in civil service pay.

To ask the Lord President of the Council what energy efficiency steps have been taken in the House since 1 January.

Improving energy efficiency in the House is being achieved in three ways—by specific energy conservation projects, better housekeeping, and by incorporating energy conservation measures in the design of new facilities and major replacement programmes.

To ask the Lord President of the Council if he will pay a visit to the west cloisters in the Palance of Westminster to inspect working conditions for hon. Members.

I shall visit the west cloisters as soon as possible.

To ask the Lord President of the Council if he will make a statement concerning the establishment and operation of the new Standing Committees appointed to consider documents originating from the European Community.

Standing Order No. 102, as amended by the House on 24 October, provides for the establishment of three European Standing Committees from the start of this Session. These Committees will each have 10 members who will be appointed by the Committee of Selection for a whole Session. I hope that the nominations will take place shortly and that the European Standing Committees will be able to begin holding debates on EC documents as soon as possible thereafter.

To ask the Lord President of the Council what representations he has received regarding the nomination of a Select Committee on Scottish Affairs.

I have received a number of such representations.

To ask the Lord President of the Council what steps have been taken to replace the former Members' lounge adjacent to the Library corridor now occupied by the Labour party.

Although relocation of the facility provided by the room in question did not form part of the Accommodation and Administration Sub-Committee's deliberations when approval was given for a change of use, it is understood that it will be considered in the context of accommodation becoming available in the House as a result of moves to phase 1 of the new parliamentary building.

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science (1) what is the 1990–91 North Yorkshire education authority capital budget for furnishings and equipment in North Yorkshire schools;(2) what is the 1990–91 North Yorkshire education authority capital budget for building work in North Yorkshire schools.

North Yorkshire local education authority received annual capital guidelines in 1990–91 for education expenditure on schools and further and higher education of £4–1 million. This represents no more than the minimum level of suggested capital spending on education. LEAs are free to spend whatever they think fit from whatever overall resources are available to them for capital spending. I understand that North Yorkshire LEA's capital budget for 1990–91 is in the region of £5 million.

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science what was the cost of the carpet in the foyer of the National Curriculum Council's new building in Skeldergate, York.

There is no carpet in the foyer of the National Curriculum Council's new building in Skeldergate, York.

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science how many staff work in the National Curriculum Council's new building in Skeldergate, York.

The number of staff currently working in the National Curriculum Council's new headquarters in York is 83. The building is also used for meetings of NCC's council, curriculum committees, task groups and conferences.

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science what is the cost of the lease of the National Curriculum Council's new building in Skeldergate, York.

The annual rent of the National Curriculum Council's new headquarters is currently under review, but is likely to be in the region of £250,000 plus VAT.

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science what is the capital cost of equipment and furnishings for the National Curriculum Council's new building in Skeldergate, York.

The cost of the fixtures, fittings and furnishings of the National Curriculum Councils new headquarters is likely to be £560,000.

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will list the schools involved in the assisted places scheme, with the total number of places and the number of assisted places in each school.
