§ ME. J. KELLY (Camberwell, N.)I beg to ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in view of the intention of the Treasury to secure uniformity as to the regulations with reference to leave and sick leave throughout the Civil Service, paragraph 9 of the Order in Council of 21st March, 1890, will be made to apply to all clerks in the Second Division: and, if so, whether the annual holidays referred to in paragraph 8 of such Order in Council are to be subject to deductions for sick leave under Departmental regulations which were in force prior to the issue of the Order in Council?
§ MR. GOSCHENClause 9 applies to all clerks of the Second Division, and I think the terms of it are sufficiently clear to require no further interpretation.
