HC Deb 25 February 1980 vol 979 c481W
Mr. Steen

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will publish in the Official Report the salaries to be paid to the vice-chairman of each of the two urban development corporations; how many other members will be appointed; and at what salaries.

Mr. Heseltine

I shall make a statement as soon as the details of these appointments are agreed.

Mr. Steen

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what is his estimate of the administrative costs in establishing each of the urban development corporations for 1979–80 and 1980–81.

Mr. Heseltine

This will depend on the speed of build-up of shadow staff. It is too early to ask the chairmen-designate for their estimates.
