§ 27. Mr. Michael McNair-Wilsonasked the Secretary of State for Employment whether he will refer to the Pay Board, 269W as soon as practicable, the desirability of establishing a single common standard for assessing the London weighting of all public service employees.
§ Mr. Chichester-ClarkMost London allowances in the public services are derived from the formula recommended by the National Board for Prices and Incomes in its Report No. 44: "London Weighting in the Non-Industrial Civil Service" (Cmnd. 3436). This already provides a common standard for their assessment.
