HC Deb 09 November 1921 vol 148 c423W
Mr. MOSLEY

asked the Minister of Pensions the number of members of the staff of the Ministry who receive salaries of over £400 per annum; and the number of ex-service members who draw salaries over that amount?

Mr. MACPHERSON

The total number of the Ministry staff in receipt of salary and bonus exceeding £400 a year is 814, and of these 635, or 78 per cent., are ex-service men. I may add that the percentage of the total male staff in my Department who are ex-service men is 95.6.
