HC Deb 01 April 1913 vol 51 c205
64. Mr. CROOKS

asked the Secretary to the Treasury whether he will consider the advisability of appointing candidates from the September, 1911, second division clerks' examination list who obtained higher places than those now being appointed from the last list?

Mr. MASTERMAN

An unusually large number of candidates have been appointed both from the 1911 and the 1912 lists. As at present advised, I do not think it desirable to adopt my hon. Friend's suggestion with regard to candidates on the former list.
