asked the Minister of Agriculture whether he will give full particulars of the sums of £6,473 for salaries and wages and £1,798 for travelling expenses paid by the Welsh Agricultural Land Sub-Commission in the year ended 31st March, 1950; how many persons are employed as general staff and what are their total salaries; and how many are employed as resident estate staffs and what are their total salaries.

£6,473 is the portion of the total salaries, wages and superannuation of the Sub-Commission and staff (including workmen) which has been allocated to management; £1,798 is the amount of travelling expenses actually incurred by the Sub-Commission and staff on management work in the year ended 31st March, 1949. The equivalent figure for the year ended 31st March, 1950, is £1,415. In that year there were eight general staff whose salaries and superannuation totalled £4,350, and 17 resident estate staff and workmen whose salaries, wages and superannuation totalled £5,915.
