§ Mr. HoyleTo ask the Prime Minister what rules apply to the use of air miles credited to Ministers undertaking official journeys.
§ The Prime Minister[holding answer 2 March 1994]: I have recently made it clear that I do not believe that Ministers or officials travelling on Government business, necessarily paid for from public funds, should make private use of air miles which may arise as a result of that expenditure. There is no objection to re-applying the benefits of these schemes to travel on Government business.
