HC Deb 08 October 1946 vol 427 c15W
75. Mr. Austin

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury the percentage of ex-Servicemen established in the Department of Inland Revenue as a result of the first review of civil servants over 30 years of age; what proportion of this percentage was in the provinces; what is the date of the second review; and will the Commissioners give an assurance that ex-Servicemen of the 1939–1945 war will not be overlooked at the time of this second review.

Me. Glenvil Hall

Ninety persons have been established by the Inland Revenue, 18 of them are ex-Servicemen, 15 of them being in the provinces. The date of the second review has not yet been fixed but I can assure my hon. Friend that the ex-Service men who are qualified for consideration will not be overlooked.
