Sir A. HUNTER-WESTON

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether arrangements have been made that the Committee appointed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer on the conditions of service of the fighting and civil services will deal with the case of the Lytton entrants first, and that the Committee, after having considered the Lytton case, will issue an interim Report?

Major BOYD-CARPENTER

As my hon. and gallant Friend will be aware, it has now been decided that the question of the initial pay of Lytton entrants to the clerical class shall he considered, amongst other matters relating to the employment of ex-service men, by a special Committee consisting of an outside Chairman, nine Members of this House, and two women; and that it will he an instruction to the Committee to inquire into, and report upon, the question of initial remuneration as soon as possible.
