HC Deb 05 March 1895 vol 31 c386
MR. G. C. T. BARTLEY (Islington, N.)

I beg to ask the Vice President of the Committee of Council on Education what salary Mr. Sadler is paid, and out if which Vote until 31st March, 1895; and why, as this is a fresh office, it is not included in the Supplementary Estimates?

THE VICE-PRESIDENT OF THE COUNCIL (Mr. A. H. D. ACLAND,) York, W.R., Rotherham

Mr. Sadler does not enter upon duty till the beginning of the new financial year, and his salary will only run from that date. Hence there is no charge on this year's estimates. The salary is £650, rising by annual increments of £25 to £800.

MR. BARTLEY

asked whether it was not a fact that 300 Inspectors, all of whom were suitable, to fill the office, had been passed over by the appointment of Mr. Sadler.

MR. ACLAND

The most suitable was selected for the office.
