HC Deb 26 August 1909 vol 9 c2437W
Mr. FIELD

asked the Secretary to the Treasury, in view of the number of assistant clerks, new class, now serving in London whose homes are in Ireland, and who in consequence have been endeavouring to effect transfers to offices in Dublin; whether he will see that arrangements are made with the Civil Service Commission when vacancies occur in Dublin offices that these men may be given priority of appointment to such vacancies in order of their seniority over new entrants to the class?

Mr. HOBHOUSE

I will make further inquiries to see whether the suggestion of the hon. Member is feasible.
