Data behind chart published in MP Pay & Pensions document

Request

I am seeking the data behind one of the charts published in the MP Pay consultation document.

I refer to the Ratio of an MP's salary relative average earnings 1911-2012. I wish to refer to some of the ratios in particular years,  but it s not possible to read them off the small graph.

Please can you provide me the spreadsheet with the three columns each covering 1911-2012 showing for each year:

  • MP salary (£pa)

  • national average earnings (£pa)

  • Ratio of above two (as plotted in IPSA graph).
