Departmental Staff (Supplementary Benefit)

HC Deb 18 June 1984 vol 62 cc49-50W

Mr Janner

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland how many employees in his Department are in receipt of supplementary benefit; and, of these, how many work (a) less than 35 hours a week and (b) 35 hours a week or more.

Mr. Butler

Personal information of this kind is confidential to employees and is not available to employers. People employed for 30 hours or more each week are not normally entitled to supplementary benefit.
