Proceeding contribution from Lord Watson of Wyre Forest (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 5 July 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Political and Constitutional Reform.


Political and Constitutional Reform

May I be the first Member unequivocally to say to the Deputy Prime Minister this afternoon that he has my full support for a yes vote in the referendum? On civil service reform, does he intend to prohibit the practice whereby Ministers can make political appointments by granting temporary civil service status to members of staff? Will he tell me how many people are currently in that position?
