§ 63. Mr. CHARLETONasked the First Commissioner of Works the total number of staff that can be accommodated in the existing offices at Acton and the number of staff at present using the building?
§ Mr. LANSBURYThe maximum number of staff of a routine character that can be accommodated in these premises is approximately 5,000 without allowance for record space. The number of staff at present in occupation is 4,085, which will be increased to 4,285 by the end of the present month. Owing to the abnormal amount of space required exclusively for records, no further staff can be housed in the building.
