HC Deb 24 June 1997 vol 296 c422W
Mr. Peter Bottomley

To ask the Secretary of State for National Heritage when the Government were first informed of arrangements for bonuses for Camelot directors. [3777]

Mr. Chris Smith

The bonus arrangements for the directors of Camelot were set out in their 1995 and 1996 annual reports. The scale of the current bonuses was drawn to my attention after reports appeared in a magazine on 28 May.
