HC Deb 12 November 1987 vol 122 c300W
Mr. George

To ask the Lord Privy Seal how many right hon. and hon. Members are currently drawing their full parliamentary salary.

Mr. Wakeham

Six hundred and forty-nine right hon. and hon. Members are currently drawing their full parliamentary salary. The one hon. Member who is not receiving a parliamentary salary is not eligible to do so, since he has not yet taken the oath.
