Mr. Forth

Responsibility for staff numbers and costs has been delegated to the Teachers Pensions Agency under its chief executive Mrs. Denyse Metcalfe. I have asked her to arrange for a reply to be given.

Letter from Denyse Metcalfe to Mr. Martin Redmond, dated 3 November 1992:

The Secretary of State for Education has asked me to supply a detailed answer to the recent question you tabled about the staffing levels and costs of the Teachers' Pensions Agency.

The Agency was not established until 1 April 1992. The estimate of numbers to be employed during the year 1992–93 is as follows:

Grade Estimated numbers (full-time equivalent)

EO 43.4
AO 142.6

The estimated staffing cost for 1992–93 is £3.725 million.

I have copied this reply to Mr. Forth.
