§ 37. Mr. William Hamiltonasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what new machinery he intends to establish to ensure increased efficiency in the Civil Service and increasing awareness of, and contact with, national economic, social, and industrial problems.
§ Mr. CallaghanThe Government intend to make the fullest use of the established Whitley machinery to encourage efficiency, and I see no need for new machinery for the purposes mentioned. Provision is being developed for spreading the use of modern management and administrative methods and many of the Government's policies will bring the Civil Service into even closer contact with economic, social and industrial problems.
