| Let us judge whether people are fit to represent us, not these unelected, unaccountable standards quangos, committees and commissioners. |
| Appointments to non-departmental bodies like quangos are subject to the scrutiny of the Public Appointments Commission. |
| Elected assemblies will draw their powers mainly from central government, its agencies and quangos not from local government. |
| Unless we devolve powers to county level and abolish the quangos, we will fail to energise local government to the challenges of the 21st century. |
| Their frustrations and ire were directed at a dithering Government and bungling quangos, not those who promote the sport in this country. |
| However, government ministers, the devolved assemblies, local authorities, quangos and all public bodies will be subject to the Convention. |
