HC Deb 10 March 1949 vol 462 c1394
51. Mr. Awbery

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer when he expects to receive the report of the Masterman Committee, which is inquiring into the question of civil rights for civil servants.

The Financial Secretary to the Treasury (Mr. Glenvil Hall)

Shortly.

Mr. Awbery

While thanking the Minister for that very brief reply, may I ask him if he is aware that this large body of men feel that they are suffering under a grave injustice, and will he do something to accelerate the report from this committee so that injustices can be removed?

Mr. Glenvil Hall

We are doing our best, and I think my hon. Friend will find that it will not be very long before the report is published.
