HC Deb 05 July 1923 vol 166 c644W
Mr. TURNER

asked the Minister of Pensions whether paragraph 121 of the Report of the Departmental Committee of 21st June, 1921, relative to the promotion of competent and qualified temporary employés, is being carried out; and whether any vacancies are being filled by other persons from other Departments?

Major TRYON

In view of the opportunities for securing permanent posts provided for the temporary staff under the recommendations of the Lytton Committee, no exceptional provision has been made for the establishment of employés of this Ministry. A few vacancies have been filled by the transfer of permanent civil servants from other Departments.
