§ 87. Mr. M. Stewartasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he is aware of the concern of persons in the service of the children's department of the London County Council about restriction of their opportunities to apply for posts in the service of the new London boroughs; and what action he will take.
§ Mr. BrookeI am not convinced that the experience and qualifications of the officers in question are sufficient for the important post of Children's Officer in the London boroughs. But in view of the concern which has been expressed, I am prepared to receive a deputation on the matter if that is desired.
