§ Mr. SNELLasked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury what was the average number of days of sick leave per head taken in each of the last three years by women clerical officers, writing assistants and members of the established typing grades, respectively; and what was the number of days of sick leave taken in the case of each of the grades concerned on account of gastric and nervous trouble, respectively, in the Customs and Excise Department, the Paymaster-General's Office, and the Office of the Public Trustee, and the Stationery Office, respectively?
Mr. SAMUELI regret that the detailed information asked for is not available, and could not be obtained without an undue expenditure of time and labour.
§ Mr. KELLYasked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury if he will state, for each Department of the Civil Service separately, what was the average number of days of sick leave per head taken during each year of the last three years by women clerical officers, writing assistants, and members of the established typing grades, respectively; and what was the average number of days of sick leave per head taken on account of gastric and nervous trouble, respectively, in the case of each of the above grades during the same period in each of the main sub-departments in the London area?
Mr. SAMUELI would refer the hon. Member to the reply given to-day to a similar question by the hon. Member for East Woolwich (Mr. Snell).
