§ Mr. W. R. Duckworthasked the Minister of Labour how many branch managers of Employment Exchanges are at the present time paid on a sliding scale depending on the amount of unemployment in their areas; and whether, in view of the fact that this arrangement means that the more employment which the branch manager obtains for those registered at his Exchange the less money he is paid, he will take steps to review the whole matter?
§ Mr. E. BrownI would refer my right hon. Friend to my reply to-day to his oral question on this subject. The number of branch managers in question is 461.
