HC Deb 12 June 1967 vol 748 cc6-7W
62. Mr. Peel

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he will take the necessary steps to increase the subsistence allowances for Parliamentary delegates to the Assemblies of the Council of Europe, the Western European Union, and the Conference of the North Atlantic Assembly and transfer them to the House of Commons Vote.

Mr. William Rodgers

No. As my right hon. Friend the Minister of State told the hon. Gentleman on 27th February, the existing allowances seem adequate in present circumstances. I see no need for any change in the accounting arrangements.—[Vol. 742, c. 95.]
