Annual Leave

Question
To ask the hon. Member for North Devon, representing the House of Commons Commission pursuant to the answer of 21 July 2008, Official Report, column 788W, on annual leave, when the leave arrangements for the Senior Commons Service were put in place; and if the Commission will review all leave arrangements for House staff and Members' staff.
Answer

The leave arrangements for the Senior Commons Structure have been in place for at least 10 years. There are no current plans to review leave arrangements. I understand that minimum leave arrangements for Members' staff are set out in the standard contract, but individual Members have discretion to grant more leave if they wish.
