Attorney General Lois Browne Evans.

And the debate on the $125,000-a-year pay cheque for the former Minister of Legislative Affairs is likely to generate as much heat as it did in the House of Assembly almost two weeks ago.

The Upper House will discuss motions to add the post of Attorney General to the list of Ministers and MPs and to add around $91,000 to the basic MP salary, bringing Mrs. Browne Evans up to the rate paid to previous, non-political, holders of the post.

Also on the agenda for today are three items relating to air affairs -- two airport regulations and an Act to allow mortgages of aircraft and aircraft engines to be held in Bermuda.

The two regulation amendments concern airport operations, substituting the title "manager'' for "director'' to take account of shifts in responsibility.
