§ MR. HAZLETONTo ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he will state if all the clerks in the Public Record Office, Ireland, hold Civil Service qualifications which entitle them to their present rate of salaries.
(Answered by Mr. Birrell.) All the permanent clerks hold the necessary Civil Service certificates, but there are also temporary copyists, at present six in number, for whom no Civil Service examination is prescribed.
