§ Mr. W. ANDERSONasked the Secretary to the Treasury what administrative posts in the Civil Service were open to women before the War; how many new administrative posts have been opened to women since the beginning of the War; what salaries they receive; and what relation their salaries bear to those paid to men doing similar work?
§ Mr. BALDWINA general statement of the administrative and other posts open to women in the Civil Service before the War will be found in Chapter X of the Fourth Report of the Royal Commission on the Civil Service (Cd. 7338 of 1914). Full details as to the salaries paid to women holding permanent appointments and to men in similar situations are contained in the volume of Civil Service Estimates; but as regards temporary appointments, I fear that full information could not be obtained without a disproportionate expenditure of time and labour.
