§ Q9. Mr. Dalyell
asked the Prime Minister if the public speech by the Lord Privy Seal on the subject of Civil Service conditions at Margate, on Wednesday, 10th May, represents Government policy.

§ The Prime Minister
Yes, Sir.

§ Mr. Dalyell
In the light of Sir Henry Hardman's committee to which Lord Jellicoe referred, will the Government do anything to disperse some of the 100,000 headquarters civil servants from London to other parts of the country?

§ The Prime Minister
That will depend on the recommendations of the committee.
