Mr. Edward Taylor

Up to 30th September, 1970, £1,344,930 has been paid in consultants' fees. These cover relevant costs incurred as well as remuneration and have been calculated in accordance with the professional associations' scales in force at the time that the consultants were appointed. These scales were accepted by the Government of the day.
