HC Deb 20 January 1981 vol 997 c136W
Mr. Henderson

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services why the remuneration of census enumerators in England has been fixed at a level higher than that for Scotland; and why it is higher in London than the rest of England.

Sir George Young

The work load given to an enumerator in England and Wales is greater than in Scotland. A London allowance is given that is broadly comparable with that received by other Government employees.
