HC Deb 04 November 1929 vol 231 c655W
Sir F. HALL

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury if he will agree to suspend open recruitment to the Civil Service until after the Royal Commission on the Civil Service have made their recommendations as to unestablished ex-servicemen in the Civil Service?

Mr. PETHICK-LAWRENCE

I fear that the requirements of the public service make the hon. and gallant Member's suggestion quite impracticable.
