HC Deb 03 March 1976 vol 906 cc669-70W
Mr. William Hamilton

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs how many public appointments are within his gift; what salaries are involved: what was the total cost in the last financial year; and what were the comparable figures for 1970.

Mr. Ennals

85 appointments to some 18 separate public bodies, mostly advisory committees and cultural and technical organisations. These appointments are all honorary. Comparable figures for 1970 are not readily available.
