asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury the number of civil servants that receive £2 per week or less, £2 to £3, £3 to £4 and up to £5 per week?

The FINANCIAL SECRETARY to the TREASURY (Mr. Duff Cooper)

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply which I gave to the hon. Member for Wednesbury (Mr. Banfield) on the 22nd November. Such of the information asked for as is not covered by that reply will be found in the tabular statement which, with the hon. Member's permission, I will circulate in the OFFICIAL REPORT.

Mr. THORNE

Can the hon. Member say from memory whether any of the people mentioned in the question had a reduction in 1931, and, if so, whether it has been restored to them?

Mr. COOPER

Not without notice.
