HC Deb 21 January 1969 vol 776 cc79-80W
Sir C. Osborne

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will give in column form the number of officials he employs, established and non-established, respectively, whose total salaries and allowances are under £1,500 per annum, between £1,500 and £3,000 per annum, between £3,000 and £5,000 per annum, between £5,000 and £7,500 per annum, and over £7,500 per annum, respectively.

Mr. Crosland

Details are not readily available of the numbers of officials whose total salaries and allowances are between the stated ranges and this information could be provided only at disproportionate expense. The total numbers of established and non-established staff (non-industrial) employed by the Board of Trade on 1st October, 1968, were 12,931 and 5,097 respectively. Corresponding figures for the Export Credits Guarantee Department are 998 and 367, respectively.
