§ 35. Mr. Mayhewasked the Assistant Postmaster-General what discussions he has had with the Independent Television Authority regarding the payment of pensions to officers or persons employed by the Authority.
§ Mr. GammansNone, as no proposals for staff pensions have as yet been put forward by the Authority for my noble Friend's approval.
