§ Mr. Arthur Lewisasked the Prime Minister whether she will take steps to halt the growing practice of departmental Ministers making appointments to public boards and authorities of Members of the House of Lords who already hold more than one similar type of appointment, and receive more than one public service pension, and instead arrange for the appointment of persons who have no other employment or payment from public funds.
§ The Prime MinisterNo. Ministers will continue to base their choice on suitability for the appointment vacant.
