HC Deb 29 March 1922 vol 152 c1354W
Mr. HOGGE

asked the Secretary for Scotland the present salary of the procurator fiscal for Roxburghshire and Berwickshire; the allowance made to Mr. Sydney Hilson, Jedburgh, the pre sent holder of these offices, for travelling expenses; and the net amount saved annually since the offices were amalgamated?

Mr. MUNRO

The present salary of this officer is £950. No fixed allowance is made to him for travelling expenses, but the increase under the head of travelling and subsistence charges consequent on the amalgamation of the offices of procurator fiscal for Roxburghshire and Berwickshire may be taken as £30 per annum. The net annual saving which results from the amalgamation of the two offices is about £120.
