§ Mr. Paul Deanasked the Minister for the Civil Service when he expects the new Civil Service Pay Research Unit Board to report on the appropriate adjustment in salaries in respect of the value of inflation-proof pensions.
§ Mr. Charles R. MorrisAs set out in the new agreement with the National Staff Side, this is a matter on which the Government Actuary is to issue regular reports. An adjustment can only be made as part and parcel of a pay research settlement, and I would therefore expect his advice, on the extent to which the existing adjustment needs to be revised, to be published in 1979 which is when the next pay research settlement is due.
