Proceeding contribution from Edward Leigh (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 26 January 2006. It occurred during Parliamentary proceeding on Public Accounts.
Public Accounts
On the key aspects, this is the only publicity—we are not supposed to mention this—directed at civil servants. None of our reports ever criticise the Labour Government or Labour Ministers. We never get involved in politics. It is important that civil servants know that this public spotlight is on them. That, as the hon. Gentleman says, is a spur to better performance.
