HC Deb 08 March 1973 vol 852 c188W
Mr. Cordle

asked the Secretary of State for Employment what steps the Pay Board will take to prevent pay rises awarded under the false guise of promotion; and whether he proposes to recommend spot checks on companies and other institutions to ensure that staff who have been promoted are not in fact doing the same work.

Mr. Chichester-Clark

It will be the duty of the Pay Board to exercise its powers in such ways as appear to it appropriate for ensuring that the provisions of the code which concern remuneration are implemented.
