Select Committee on Conduct of Members

HC Deb 07 March 1977 vol 927 c366W

Mr. Kilroy-Silk

asked the Lord President of the Council who is responsible for the payment of counsel for persons appearing before the Select Committee on Conduct of Members.

Mr. Foot

Any application for the costs of representation by counsel before a Select Committee would be a matter for the House, which would, no doubt, take into account any recommendations made by the Committee.
