HC Deb 09 February 1926 vol 191 cc827-8
90. Major Sir BERTRAM FALLE

asked the Secretary of State for War whether the clerical complements for the Hilsea Ordnance Depot have yet been filled; and, if so, at what date it is anticipated the civilian clerks concerned will be assimilated to their new grades under the clerical reorganisation scheme for the War Office out-stations?

91. Mr. GROVES

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is now in a position to announce the civilian clerical complements for Army Ordnance Services, having in view the fact that the Financial Secretary to the War Office stated in the House of Commons on 2nd December, 1925, that the work was then proceeding as rapidly as possible?

Captain KING

Complements for the Office of the Assistant Director of Ordnance Services (Provision) have been authorised. Those for the office of the Chief Inspector of Stores and Clothing will be authorised within a few days; those for the Central Ordnance Depots and the Command Depots, including Hilsea, will be ready shortly.
