HC Deb 22 February 1915 vol 70 c34
12. Mr. ROWLANDS

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury when the agreement for giving the staff of the Public Trustee's Department a permanent and pensionable status will become operative?

Mr. ACLAND

The agreement referred to by my hon. Friend will become operative as soon as Civil Service certificates are issued in favour of the members of the Public Trustee's staff.

Mr. ROWLANDS

How many have applied for these?

Mr. ACLAND

I do not think it is a question of individual applications, but a question as to what the Department applies, on behalf of the staff, to be taken over.
