HC Deb 18 November 1914 vol 68 c434W
Mr. JOYNSON-HICKS

asked the Under-Secretary for War whether, in connection with the additional staff in the Chief Paymaster's Department of the War Office, he has issued any order declining to reemploy retired assistant paymasters; and whether he has considered the desirability of employing these rather than outside assistants who can have no previous knowledge of the work?

Mr. BAKER

No, Sir. No such order has been issued. There are no retired assistant paymasters, and the question of their employment does not, therefore, arise.
