Mr. Beggs: To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland when the decision was taken by the Northern Ireland Housing Executive to develop two separate integrated sites for public sector housing; what criteria were used; whether further sites have been identified by the Northern Ireland Housing Executive for integrated communities; and if he will make a statement. [174093] Mr. Spellar: Applicants for social housing have a choice of where they wish to live and there are a number of people who would prefer to live in an integrated housing environment. With less than 10 per cent. of social housing integrated, the choice of where to live for those people who prefer integration is greatly reduced compared to those living in segregated communities. The Housing Executive Board, at its meeting in September 2003, agreed that proposals should be brought forward for two integrated housing pilot projects which would enable the Housing Executive, and others, to test the policy and procedural implications of integrated housing. The proposals are at an early stage and locations for the pilot projects have still to be identified. There are no proposals for further pilots. The criteria to be used for developing the two pilot projects will facilitate and encourage integrated housing as far as this is practicable, desirable and safe. It will take into consideration local letting policies, sustainability of the schemes, plans to involve stakeholders and strategic and operational structures. The proposals reflect the Housing Executive's and other public bodies' responsibilities under Section 75 of the Northern Ireland Act 1998 which deal with the promotion of equality of opportunity and good relations.

Joyce Quin: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what progress the Department has made towards the goal set out in the White Paper, "Your Region, Your Choice", of (a) ensuring that regional awareness and devolution feature strongly in Civil Service training and development, (b) increasing the mobility of civil servants between headquarters offices, regional offices, and the Government Offices and (c) encouraging interchange between the Civil Service and organisations in the regions. [108584] Mr. Spellar: My Department is committed to improving awareness of regional issues and devolution among its staff as part of its overall strategy for training and development. Where appropriate this includes participation in training programmes offered by the Civil Service Training College (CMPS). The Department is reviewing its induction package to reflect an appropriate emphasis on regional awareness and devolution. The Department's website includes a section on devolution and we brief staff on the regional aspects of the Department's work through internal publications. The mobility of staff between HQ policy and regionally based delivery directorates is a strategic priority and all moves are made in the best interest of the Department. To improve the mobility of staff, all permanent Department for Transport (DfT) central staff have access to, and are eligible to apply for, vacancies in the Department's Agencies and the Government Offices via an electronic job advertising system. Permanent staff below the Senior Civil Service in the Department for Culture Media and Sport, the Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs, the Department for Employment and Skills, the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister, the Department for Trade and Industry and the Home Office working in the Government Offices and permanent agency staff, are eligible to apply for advertised DfT posts. However we do not record centrally the resulting staff moves between headquarters and the regions. During 2002-03, around 20 staff undertook interchange postings with organisations in the regions from the then Department for Transport Local Government and the Regions (DTLR). Transport constitutes approximately one third of these postings, all of which are on-going. We aim to improve this. My Department's central interchange team will shortly be discussing the development of specific opportunities with our Agencies, all of whom have staff located outside London.
