HC Deb 20 June 1973 vol 858 cc758-9
Mr. Peter Mills

I beg to move Amendment No. 26, in page 7, line 41, leave out 'pre' and insert 'prescribed by'.

This is an amendment to correct a printing error.

Amendment agreed to.

Question proposed, That the Clause, as amended, stand part of the Bill.

Mr. Stratton Mills

May I make one matter clear? As I understand it, anyone elected to the Assembly automatically will be in receipt of a salary, whether or not he takes his seat. Is that the correct position?

Mr. Peter Mills

To be honest, I am not sure what it is that my hon. Friend is asking. Clause 9 is concerned with the Executive and its payment. It is not concerned with members of the Northern Ireland Assembly.

Mr. Stratton Mills

I apologise. The matter arises on a later clause.

Question put and agreed to.

Clause 9, as amended, ordered to stand part of the Bill

Clause 10 ordered to stand part of the Bill.

Clause 11 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
