HC Deb 28 July 1980 vol 989 c464W
24. Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Prime Minister whether, in view of the changed circumstances resulting from the 23 per cent. increase in Post Office wages settled within two days of the House setting an example of wage and salary restraint by reducing the proposed independent award to hon. Members to 9.6 per cent., she will now review the situation on Members of Parliament's salaries.

The Prime Minister

No. Members of this House expressed their views on this subject when they voted on Monday 21 July to increase their pay by 9.6 per cent.
