HC Deb 10 May 1976 vol 911 c42W
Mr. Shersby

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what is the estimated cost to public funds of automatic increments to local authority employees during the year commencing 1st August 1976.

Mr. Guy Barnett

Local authorities, as employers, are responsible for assessing the cost of increments payable to their employees. I understand the cost, if any. of these increments has not yet been estimated for the year commencing 1st August 1976.
