HC Deb 23 January 1980 vol 977 c223W
Mr. Philip Holland

asked the Secretary of State for Energy if he will list in the Official Report the bodies to which he appoints members other than civil servants whose abolition has been announced since May; and if he will list in each case the cash savings that will result and the number of appointed members whose appointments will be terminated.

Mr. David Howell

I have disbanded the Energy Commission, with its unpaid membership of 22. This will save £22,000 per annum.
