|* The New Opportunities Fund (NOF) and the Community Fund (CF) have been operating under the name the Big Lottery Fund since their administrative merger on 1 June 2004. However, they remain distinct legal bodies and will continue to do so until the National Lottery Bill, currently before Parliament, is enacted. Coterminous boards for NOF and CF—a separate board for each body, but the same membership for each board—were appointed on 1 June 2004, under the chairmanship of Sir Clive Booth. They will remain in place until the Big Lottery Fund proper is established later this year. Once appointed, the chair of the Big Lottery Fund will receive remuneration of £36,720 and the time commitment will be circa three days per week.| | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |** The Ofcom chair is appointed jointly by DCMS and DTI | | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lord Lee of Trafford asked Her Majesty's Government: What are the salary and time requirements for all chairmen of public bodies appointed by the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government.[HL6557] The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department for Communities and Local Government (Baroness Andrews) Information on remuneration of chairs of public bodies is published in the annual Cabinet Office publication Public Bodies, prepared by the Agencies and Public Bodies Team in the Cabinet Office.
