§ Mr. Arthur Lewisasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will detail the public posts held by Lord Cromer and the number of former positions for which he receives pensions from the public funds.
§ Mr. Robert Sheldon:So far as I am aware, the only public post currently held by Lord Cromer is that of the Government-appointed director on the board of the Suez Finance Company, which is unpaid and attracts no pension entitlement. Lord Cromer receives no pension from public funds in respect of former public posts.
