HC Deb 27 May 1977 vol 932 c647W
Mr. George Cunningham

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what instructions or guidance have been given by the Treasury to the Foreign Office over the last 10 years on the manner of accounting for interest-free car loans to members of the staff; on what dates; and whether such communications have been complied with.

Mr. Robert Sheldon

Guidance on accounting for these loans was given in letters sent during 1969 and 1970. As regards the last part of the Question, I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply given to him by my hon. Friend the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs on 9th May.
