HC Deb 31 July 1947 vol 441 cc70-1W
53. Professor Gruffydd

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer why qualified scientists on production duties in the Ministry of Supply and the Admiralty are excluded from the benefits of the White Paper of September, 1945, on Reorganisation and Recruitment, while those with exactly similar qualifications on laboratory duties in other Departments receive the benefits of the White Paper scales.

Mr. Glenvil Hall

Staff in the Government Service are classified according to the work on which they are engaged; and the work described in the first part of the Question is not appropriate to the Scientific Classes.
