HC Deb 05 November 1912 vol 43 c1033W
Mr. TYSON WILSON

asked the Secretary to the Treasury how many auditors and assistant auditors have been appointed under the National Health Insurance Act; and whether it is proposed to make any further appointments?

Mr. MASTERMAN

Forty-two auditors have been appointed, and it is probable that a few more will be appointed from among those whose names have been under the consideration of the Selection Committee. Of the 204 candidates selected for examination for the post of senior auditor eighty are in course of appointment, and it is probable that a few more vacancies will be filled from the list resulting from the examination already held. A competitive examination for junior assistant auditors will be shortly held among candidates already nominated by the Committee of Selection. Probably about 150 appointments will be made from the result of this examination.
