Mr. Dempsey

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will publish in the OFFICIAL. REPORT the names and addresses of persons who have been appointed by him to more than one public body in Scotland; and if he will give their remuneration.

Mr. Ross

I have appointed a considerable number of people to more than one public body, but most of those appointments carry no remuneration.

The following are those whom I have appointed to more than one remunerative position:

Mr. Ross

About 16,500, of whom 14,700 made elections; 4,961 have elected to join the scheme and 9,739 opted out.

Mr. David Steel

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many teachers in Scotland have made application for a quotation of contribution rates in respect of possible nominations under the scheme for pensions for dependants; how many nominations have been made; and how many have been accepted.

Mr. Ross

There have been 50 applications and 14 nominations. Three have been accepted; the remaining 11 are under consideration.
