HC Deb 10 June 1985 vol 80 c317W
Mr. Tony Banks

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will state the identified office location of the London residuary body.

Mr. Kenneth Baker

From 1 April 1986 I expect this to be County hall, London SE1 7PB.

Mr. Tony Banks

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what salary or fee will be paid to Sir Arthur Godfrey Taylor as formal chairman of the London residuary body; and what expenses will be paid whilst he acts in an advisory capacity.

Mr. Kenneth Baker

These matters have yet to be decided. The fees or salaries paid to chairmen and members of residuary bodies will be made public in due course in accordance with usual practice.

Mr. Tony Banks

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what staff are being made available to the London residuary body; and what is the envisaged cost.

Mr. Kenneth Baker

The London residuary body will be responsible for employing such staff as it needs in accordance with section 112 of the Local Government Act 1972.

Mr. Tony Banks

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will estimate the total costs involved in changeovers in computer systems following abolition of the Greater London council.

Mr. Waldegrave

The question of costs is for successors and in particular the residuary body which we expect will take over much of the GLC's central computer facilities on abolition.
