HC Deb 01 March 1928 vol 214 cc609-10W
Mr. GERALD HURST

asked the Minister of Labour why the Ministry of Labour has stated its decision to allocate 200 vacancies to new entrants to the Civil Service at a time when 122 ex-service temporary clerks are being dis- missed as being redundant; and if he will adhere to the undertaking to retain and allocate their due share of promotions to ex-service men?

Sir A. STEEL-MAITLAND

I can only refer my hon. Friend to the answer I gave to questions on this subject on the 17th February, 1928.
