HC Deb 03 June 1942 vol 380 c688W
Mr. Purbrick

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether, in view of the unsatisfactory conditions that exist in regard to super-abundant staff in the Civil Service and to the large amount of overtime paid, he will arrange for a special independent inquiry into this matter?

Captain Crookshank

I would refer my hon. Friend to the answer which I gave to him on 13th April, 1942.
