HC Deb 29 November 2000 vol 357 c710W
Mr. Gordon Prentice

To ask the President of the Council what plans the Government have to introduce a special allowance, on appointment, to people's peers to help with the cost of incidental expenses. [140336]

Mrs. Beckett

None. Those recommended for life peerages by the Appointments Commission will receive exactly the same entitlement to expenses allowances as all other life peers.
