E.RO

during Report stage in the Commons indicated, a certain amount of general, subjective

comment by the Governor will be expected, over and above a straight narrative on the

discharge of his functions under the Act. I have annexed a list of the points which Members suggested should be covered. Those marked with an asterisk seem, to me, worthy of inclusion.

I suggest the following information should certainly be included:-

a)

the making of the Governor's regulations;

b)

the appointment of the Steering Committee and a list of subjects on

which the Governor had asked the Committee for advice;

c)

statistics on the total number of applications received by class (ie General Occupational Class, Disciplined Services Class, Sensitive Service Class and Entrepreneurs Class);

d)

total numbers recommended by the Governor to date, broken down by

class, occupational group within the GOC, and by rank and service within the DSC;

e)

numbers registered to date on behalf of the Secretary of State;

f)

profile of successful applicants overall and by class (including, for

example, details on sex, age and education level);

g)

h)

i)

numbers of spouses and dependants recommended by the Governor;

adopred

by

the criteria

a[by the Steering Committee in the application of special circumstances points by occupational group in the GOC and by disciplined service in the DSC;

numbers not recommended by the Governor on grounds of:

i)

ineligibility; and

ii)

unsatisfactory character.
