HC Deb 18 October 1939 vol 352 cc887-8W
Mr. Lunn

asked the Minister of Health when those persons who carried out their work as enumerators for the National Register are likely to receive payment for such work, which is now completed, as many of them are in need of it?

Miss Horsbrugh

Instructions have been given for payment to be made to each enumerator of the fixed fee of £2 immediately upon the completion of his work to the prima facie satisfaction of the local national registration officer. These payments have already been made or are being made in a large number of areas. The balance of the remuneration, which is calculated upon a population scale, will be paid as soon as the total population enumerated in the district can be checked and verified.
