HC Deb 03 July 1951 vol 489 cc199-200W
63. Mr. Redmayne

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury what number of temporary clerks in the Civil Service are under 45 years of age; what number are over that age; and what are the corresponding figures of clerical assistants.

Mr. Jay

No central record is kept which would show the ages of temporary clerks in Government employment. The number of clerical assistants in post on 1st January, 1951, under 45 years of age was 17,578; the number aged 45 and over was 582.
