Lord Greaves – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the HM Treasury

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Greaves on 2015-11-25.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government under what legislation the National Infrastructure Commission currently operates; whether the National Infrastructure Commissioners are being paid allowances or expenses for their work; and if so, on what basis, and how much.

Lord O’Neill of Gatley

The National Infrastructure does not currently operate under any legislation, but it will be legislated for when parliamentary time allows. Commissioners are being reimbursed all reasonable expenses properly and necessarily incurred in respect of their appointments. They are paid allowances in line with similar government positions.
