HC Deb 26 January 1966 vol 723 cc62-6W
Mr. Hugh D. Brown

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will publish annually a White Paper showing all appointments made by him to public authorities, boards, advisory and consultative committees and similar bodies, and giving details of salaries or allowances payable where applicable, and the dates and length of such appointments.

Mr. Ross
