§ Mrs. Beckett[holding answer 15 December 1997]: The structure of the blind trust which is used to pay the salary of a member of staff in my parliamentary office was discussed in advance with the relevant House of Commons authorities, who confirmed that it was in full 175W conformity with the rules. I have declared in the register of member's interests the information required about the trust and I have nothing further to add.
