[39440]

Mr. Lang

The DTI is not responsible for any non-departmental public bodies in the county of South Yorkshire.

Mr. Redmond

To ask the President of the Board of Trade if he will list the public appointments for which his Department is responsible in the county of South Yorkshire, indicating in each case the duration of the appointment, the date when a new appointment is due, and the salary. [39472]

Mr. Lang

Information on lay appointments to the industrial tribunals is not available for South Yorkshire as appointments are made on a regional rather than a county basis. Appointments are made triennially from 25 October for an initial period of three years and are renewable up to age 70. Lay members are not paid a salary but receive a fee of £119 for a whole day's sitting plus travelling and subsistence allowances, where applicable.

The DTI makes no other public appointments in the county of South Yorkshire.
