HC Deb 12 August 1966 vol 733 c441W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what official expenses and/or subsistence allowances Ministers are allowed to draw in addition to their ministerial and Parliamentary salaries; and what have been the individual amounts so drawn by each Minister since October, 1964.

Mr. Diamond

Ministers travelling on official business are entitled to first-class travel and to subsistence allowances in accordance with the general arrangements for senior civil servants.

I regret that the information in respect of the second part of the Question could only be made available at a disproportionate expenditure of time and money.
