HC Deb 15 May 1919 vol 115 c1818W
Mr. NEIL M'LEAN

asked the Secretary for Scotland whether the janitor in the schools in the Glasgow school board area, which were used as polling-stations at the General Election, have yet been paid; whether Sheriff M'Kenzie, the returning officer, has stated to the janitors that he has not yet received an allocation from the Treasury for this purpose; whether all others who took an official part in that election in Glasgow have had their claims settled; and when he proposes to settle with the school janitors?

Mr. BALDWIN

The expenses of the returning officer has been paid, including those of the school janitors, who should be referred to the returning officer if their claims have not been satisfied.
