HC Deb 22 November 1979 vol 974 c352W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Minister for the Civil Service whether he will publish a detailed list of the Civil Service and Government appointments held by Mr. Anthony Blunt, his salary and grading; what pension rights have been, or are being paid; and whether he will publish the total of public funds paid to him.

Mr. Channon

Mr. Blunt was commissioned in the Army General list on 16 September 1939 and was released with effect from 2 November 1945 in the temporary rank of major. Throughout this period he was paid from Army funds. His service was not sufficient to earn a pension. Without disproportionate effort and expense I could not say how much he has been paid in total from public funds.
