HC Deb 13 December 1949 vol 470 c242W
58. Mr. Cooper

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury what are the facilities available in the Civil Service, when an official is given his notice of dismissal other than on grounds of redundancy, for him to state his case for appeal to some independent tribunal which would be appropriate for officials whether their grade makes them eligible for membership of a trade union or not, and which can make a factual and unbiased investigation.

Mr. Glenvil Hall

There are no facilities for appeal to an independent tribunal in the circumstances quoted. The responsibility rests with the head of the employing Department.
