§ MASTER OF ELIBANKTo ask the President of the Local Government Board whether he can obtain information as to whether clerks to county councils, who are salaried from public funds, are permitted to engage in politics in a paid capacity 01 otherwise.
(Answered by Mr. Walter Long.) I have no information on this subject, and it could only be obtained by means of applications to all the county councils. I am not aware of any sufficient reason for this being done.
