Details

The TSRB was asked on 8 August 1980 by the Prime Minister to undertake for 1981 a review of the salaries of Members of Parliament and of Ministers and other paid office holders. The TSRB was also invited to review the allowance available to MPs for secretarial and research assistance, the Peers’ expenses allowance, and the allowance for secretarial expenses of Ministers and other paid office holders in the House of Lords.

This Report sets out the TSRB’s analysis and recommendations.
