HC Deb 31 July 1975 vol 896 cc569-70W
Mr. Stallard

asked the Secretary of State for Employment how the policy set out in the White Paper "The Attack on Inflation" applies to increases in London weighting.

Mr. Foot

The pay limits apply to any such increases on or after 1st August, and they will then have to be kept, together with the annual settlement, within the £6 limit with the cut-off at £8,500. Reviews of London weighting with due dates before 1st August may be nego tiated only in strict accordance with the existing guidelines.
