HC Deb 15 July 1920 vol 131 c2632W
Sir S. HOARE

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether a bonus to meet the cost of living has been given to Grades 1, 2, and 3 temporary clerks and temporary administrative officers; and, if so, whether this honus will be extended to the lower grades of temporary clerks?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

Temporary graded clerks are at present paid in accordance with the terms of the Civil Service Arbitration Board Agreement No. A 71, dated 19th March, 1920. The maximum rates of pay prescribed in that Agreement for the lower grades of temporary clerks will be considered in connection with the inquiry of the special Committee of the National Whitley Council to which I referred in my reply to my hon. and gallant Friend on the 12th instant.
