§ Mr. Onslowasked the Minister for the Civil Service what proportion of the staff of the non-industrial Civil Service are entitled to an annual increment in salary during the current financial year; and what is the total value of these increments.
§ Mr. HayhoeAbout half are due for an annual increment during this financial year. The total value of these increments is about £70 million but, due to wastage and replacement by staff on lower incremental points, the net cost is expected to be about £15 million in the current financial year.
