§ 21. Mr. Beswickasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if, in view of the fact that the subsistence allowance payable to Ministers and Members of Parliament whilst away on duty is limited to that paid to civil servants of the rank of assistant secretary and above, he will make provision for compensation for death and injury whilst travelling on duty to be paid to Ministers and Members of Parliament on the same scale as that payable to civil servants.
§ Mr. P. ThorneycroftI am considering this matter.
