HC Deb 27 June 1972 vol 839 cc333-4W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Lord Advocate whether he will give the number of the staff in his Department who will be affected by the Boyle proposals to increase salaries by 20 per cent. to 25 per cent.; what salaries they now receive; and to what extent these will be raised on the implementation of the Boyle Report.

The Lord Advocate

I would refer the hon. Member to the Report of the Top Salaries Review Body (Cmnd. 5001), which was published on 23rd June, and to my right hon. Friend the Prime Minister's written reply of 23rd June to the hon. Member for Surrey, East (Mr. William Clark). There are three staff at Under-Secretary level and above in my Departments whose pay is affected by the recommendations of the Review Body.
