To ask His Majesty's Government how many Ministers do not receive a ministerial salary sitting in (1) the House of Commons, and (2) the House of Lords; and how many of these are beyond the scope of the statutory limitation on the maximum number of Ministers who may be paid ministerial salaries.

A list of all government ministers is on gov.uk at the following address: https://www.gov.uk/government/ministers. This details whether ministers are paid or unpaid.

The Ministerial and other Salaries Act 1975 sets a statutory limit on the number of ministerial salaries of 109. There are currently 108 paid ministers, 1 minister paid by the Labour Party, and 10 unpaid ministers.
