HC Deb 02 April 1979 vol 965 c492W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Lord President of the Council to what extent he estimates there would be a rise or fall in the individual or collective payments made to hon. Members for travel, secretarial and research assistants, &c., if all expense payments, including attendance at committees, were paid on the same basis as that now being paid to the Members of the European Assembly.

Mr. Foot

I refer my hon. Friend to the reply I gave him on 7 February 1978.—[Vol. 943, c.514.]
