HC Deb 05 June 1930 vol 239 cc2385-6
90. Captain CROOKSHANK

asked the Postmaster-General what salary will be paid to the new chairman of the British Broadcasting Corporation?

Mr. VIANT

In accordance with the terms of the Royal Charter of the British Broadcasting Corporation, the salary of the chairman is determined by resolution of the corporation subject to a maximum of £3,000 a year.

Captain CROOKSHANK

Does that mean that the corporation has it entirely within its competence to decide when the holder of the office has already a pension?

Mr. VIANT

I think that question had better be put down.
