HC Deb 17 April 1980 vol 982 cc690-1W
Mr. Bruce-Gardyne

asked the Secretary of State for Industry what contractual provision for compensation payments in the event of voluntary resignation is made by the National Enterprise Board in respect of its present and former employees; and if he will ensure that no commitments are entered into by the National Enterprise Board as a charge on public funds in excess of any such contractual commitments.

Mr. Michael Marshall

Compensation payments for employees of the board are a matter for the board. Board members are not employees of the board; any compensation payments to them would be a matter for my right hon. Friends the Prime Minister and the Secretary of State.
