The words which the hon. Member has just used could mean only that. He has said that if the chairman of the National Coal Board, receiving £12,500 per annum, saw somebody else having more than that, as head of the Coal Board he would feel disgruntled. That can only mean that the hon. Member considers that the salary of the chairman of the National Coal Board should be increased if the quality of the Steel Corporation appointment calls for more money, or that the hon. Member is fixing the top limit at £12,500 Is that what he means? We are entitled to know.
