65. Sir R. De la Bèreasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer how many of the 853 civil servants employed on information work at home are seconded to Government Departments on work as public relations officers.
§ Mr. Boyd-CarpenterI think the hon. Baronet has misunderstood my answer of 29th April. The 853 includes all the staff employed by Government Departments on home information work (i.e. Press and public relations work); but there is no general grade with the title "public relations officer."
