Committee on Standards in Public Life: Local Public Spending Bodies

Published May 1996
Response position and delivery status are recorded separately. Acceptance does not establish implementation.
Recommendation (the Committee's words)
Provision for the appointment of a director who does not fit the strict eligibility criteria should be made in Wales and Scotland; consideration should be given to permitting such appointments to be made without prior acceptance by government; the eligibility requirements for non-business directors of TECs should be simplified to widen the potential pool of non-business board members, including, in a personal capacity, elected members of local authorities.
