§ MR. CALDWELL (Lanarkshire, Mid)I beg to ask the Lord Advocate whether 599 he is aware that Census enumerators in Scotland are complaining of not having received payment of the money due to them for Census work, and whether he can state when payment is likely to be made.
MR. A. GRAHAM MURRAYThe Census accounts for all Scotland are necessarily voluminous, and their examination and audit is obviously a work of very serious dimensions. I am, however, informed by the Registrar General that the accounts to the amount of one-third for all Scotland have been examined and settled, and that every effort will be made to complete the settlement as soon as possible consistently with the requirements of a proper examination.
