Public Appointments In Wales
EDM number 437 in 1991-92, proposed by Rhodri Morgan on 18/12/1991.
That this House urges the Secretary of State for the Home Department to reconsider his reported decision to appoint Dr Gwyn Jones, already the Chairman of the Welsh Development Agency, to be also the Chairman of the BBC Broadcasting Council for Wales; reminds the Secretary of State for the Home Department of the democratic advantages of dispensing such vital appointments amongst the widest possible cross-section of Welsh society; is alarmed at the increasing concentration of power and influence in quangos in whatever little authority to govern Wales it ever had; and further reminds the Secretary of State for the Home Department that objective reporting by the BBC in Wales on the state of the Welsh economy will be made much more difficult in the circumstances that would be brought about by the chairmanship of both BBC Wales and the Welsh Development Agency being in one and the same hands.
This motion has been signed by a total of 20 MPs.
