HC Deb 14 August 1940 vol 364 c793W
Mr. Liddall

asked the Minister of Transport the total number of driving examiners still on his Ministry's pay roll; how many are fully employed, giving the number of hours per day; how many are working part-time; also, how many at the moment have nothing at all to do; and how does he propose to utilise the services of these latter?

Sir J. Reith

There are 243 on the roll. 44 are serving with His Majesty's Forces. The remaining 199 are employed on a 48-hour week as traffic officers and on other duties in the Ministry's regional organisation. None are employed part-time and none have nothing to do.
