HL Deb 19 December 2002 vol 642 c165WA
Lord Avebury

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they will give details of the London weighting allowance paid to each category of public sector worker; whether the differences in the amounts paid are objectively justifiable; and if so, on what grounds. [HL617]

Lord McIntosh of Haringey

HM Treasury does not hold this information centrally. It is for the various public sector employers to determine their priorities, within the resources available to them, including the way they structure pay and allowances to reflect different circumstances and requirements.
