§ Mr. DOUGLAS HALLasked what was the total number of persons, not at the time of appointment in permanent Government employment, who had been appointed since January, 1906, to permanent positions in Scotland under the Crown with salaries exceeding £100 a year, and who did not previously to their appointment pass an examination by the Civil Service Commissioners; and what was the total annual value of their salaries?
§ Mr. UREI am not in a position to give the hon. Member the information for which he asks, except as regards legal appointments and appointments for which the Secretary for Scotland is responsible. If the hon. Member desires information so limited I am quite willing to give it.
