§ Mr. FIELDasked the Secretary to the Treasury whether he will state the names of the eight, new class, assistant clerks who have been promoted or nominated for promotion in the Statistical Office of the Customs?
578W
§ Mr. HOBHOUSEThe names of the four assistant clerks, new class, already promoted are: H. Anderson, R. W. Jeff, J. Waller, and H. F. G. Cole. The four others nominated have not yet been certified by the Civil Service Commissioners as duly qualified for promotion, and it is therefore not considered desirable to state their names at present.
The EARL of RONALDSHAYasked the Secretary to the Treasury what is the standard required in order to obtain a £30 checking allowance in the Statistical Office of His Majesty's Customs?
§ Mr. HOBHOUSEThe question as to whether a clerk's efficiency reaches the standard which would justify the assignment of a checking allowance must be determined by that clerk's superiors. It is obviously impossible to define such standard in terms of a mathematical equation.
