Mrs. Chalker

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services to what extent

local authority associations on the scope and rate of attendance allowance for councillors; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. William Ross

A review of members' allowances, including the attendance allowance, has been carried out jointly with all the local authority associations, and the Government are considering the results. A statement will be made in due course, and my right hon. Friends and I will consult our respective associations on any proposals which may emerge.
