(Quasi-autonomous non governmental organisations - now called non-departmental public bodies apparently)

Labour promised us a "bonfire of the quangos" - anyone noticed any difference yet?

If you think that quangos are over dominated by politicians of a certain political persuation - here's your chance to go on one yourself: Write to the Scottish Office and ask for the list of Non-Departmental Public Bodies. The address is: Room 237, St Andrew's House, Edinburgh, Scotland EH1 3DG Tel: 0131 244 4999 Fax: 0131 244 2683. You will be asked about your political persuations when you join - this is not used for selection but is simply used for statistical analysis (do you believe that?)
