HC Deb 23 April 1907 vol 172 c1579
MR. ALDEN (Middlesex, Tottenham)

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether he will state when the Parliamentary Committee to inquire into the case of Assistant Clerks (new class), for which a petition signed by a majority of the Members of this House was presented to him on the 25th ultimo, will be appointed.

SIR H. CAMPBELL-BANNERMAN

The pay and conditions of service of the Assistant Clerks have repeatedly received careful consideration in the last few years, and I do not think that any useful purpose would be served by referring the subject to a Parliamentary Committee.
