HC Deb 08 May 1939 vol 347 c39W
Mr. Parker

asked the Home Secretary what is the salary received by the chairman of the Racecourse Betting Control Board; whether the other members of the board receive salaries and, if so, what these are; and whether any fuller accounts of the salaries and wages of the headquarters' expenses of the board are available than those contained in the board's annual report?

Mr. Peake

The salary of the chairman of the board is by Section 2 (6) of the Racecourse Betting Act, 1928, wholly a matter for the board. The other members of the board do not receive salaries. The answer to the last part of the question is in the negative.
