Question for written answer E-004008-15
to the Commission
Rule 130
William (The Earl of) Dartmouth (EFDD)
Why does the Commission provide a transitional allowance to former Commission members who have taken up new gainful activity within the three-year period? If the transition into new employment is complete, why is taxpayers' money spent on a transitional allowance when the transition has already taken place?
