Book Description
One of the tasks of the Committee has been to scrutinise the relevant, major appointments by the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry. Based on a single evidence session, the aim has been: to satisfy Parliament that the post has been filled by someone of sufficient calibre; identify their views and principles; and alert them to the interests and concerns of the Committee. This report concerns Sir John Chisholm who was appointed as Chairman of the MRC in October 2006. The Committee have serious reservation as to whether he is the right person to guide the MRC Executive through the coming period of change.
