§ Mr. Wallasked the Secretary of State for the Environment what are the total number and salaries of officials of the Humberside County Council, and the approximate corresponding figures for the same area before reorganisation.
§ Mr. OakesThe information is not available in my Department. There are particular difficulties in comparing the position before and after reorganisation where entirely new authorities have been created, as in the case of Humberside, but the hon. Member may care to approach the county council direct for the information he is seeking.
