HC Deb 16 May 1950 vol 475 cc137-8W
69. Lord John Hope

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether, with regard to the examinations in the Open Clerical Class competition and in the Limited Clerical Class competition, he will direct the Civil Service Commissioners to issue the different parts of the papers separately instead of together so that the chances of disqualification will be lessened.

Mr. Jay

No; but I understand that the Commissioners intend to issue in a separate booklet the practice parts of the question paper to which the noble Lord refers. The other parts could not be issued separately without unduly extending the duration of the examination.
