§ MR. KIMBER (Wandsworth)asked Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer, Whether any Register of Retired Civil Servants fit for service, with a view to reemployment in other branches, has yet been established by the Government pursuant to expectations held out by him on July 26 last in this House; and, if so, where, and whether it is open for inspection; and, if not established, has the scheme yet been laid before, or received the assent of, the Treasury, as was then suggested would be necessary?
§ THE CHANCELLOR or THE EXCHEQUER (Mr. GOSCHEN) (St. George's, Hanover Square)I found that the form of such a Register existed under the title of "Civil Pensioners under 50 years of age available for further service." No further scheme or assent of the Treasury was necessary, and I am giving directions to have the Register made up to date; but the Register would not be open to individual inspection. I shall have no objection, however, to a Return being moved for giving the full particulars.
