§ Mr. SITCHasked the Minister of Health whether, in connection with the appointment of a town clerk, a local authority is compelled by law or regulation to advertise the vacancy, or can he state the usual practice?
§ Dr. ADDISONThere is no general legal requirement to advertise, but particular local authorities may have standing orders bearing on the matter. Public advertisement is probably the usual practice, and is one which my Department have recommended, particularly in the interests of ex-service men.
