HC Deb 22 July 1929 vol 230 cc932-3W
Sir A. SINCLAIR

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether he is aware that a number of officials employed as excisemen experience great difficulty in obtaining suitable accommodation at the stations to which they are assigned; and whether he will consider such an alteration of their terms of engagement as would ensure that they were properly housed while they are in the public service?

Mr. PETHICK-LAWRENCE

It is not clear to what officials the hon. and gallant Member refers, but if he will furnish me with particulars of any individual cases, I shall be happy to have inquiries made, and to inform him of the result.
