Mr. McNamara: To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if he will list the bodies which he intends to designate as public
authorities under section 75(3)(a) and (3)(d) of the Northern Ireland Act 1998; which Departments, corporations or bodies listed in
Schedule 2 to the Parliamentary Commissioner Act 1967 will not be so designated; and when he intends to make the final list public.

Mr. George Howarth: The Northern Ireland Act 1998 defines over one hundred public bodies to which the section 75 obligations already
apply. However, the Secretary of State may designate additional bodies under section 75(3)(a) and (d) of the Act, including those
listed in the Parliamentary Commissioner Act 1967, to which the obligation should apply. The Parliamentary Commissioner Act lists a
large number of public authorities, many of which have little or no influence in Northern Ireland.
I have met the Equality Commission to discuss the contents of the proposed designation order. At our meeting, the Equality
Commission suggested a considerable number of other bodies for inclusion in the order. We plan to consult those bodies suggested to
us by the Equality Commission which carry out functions relating to Northern Ireland as part of our consideration of whether they
should be designated.
We intend to lay an order before Parliament as soon as possible which will list a number of bodies in respect of which our
consultation is complete. In due course we hope a more comprehensive designation order will be drafted, for making later this year.
