§ Sir D. Kaberryasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether it is proposed to site the Inland Revenue Automatic Data Processing Centre at York, in view of the fact that many personnel concerned have indicated their preference for York as a centre instead of Thornaby-on-Tees.
§ Mr. MacDermotThe Inland Revenue are aware of the views of certain staff now in the southern part of the area to be served by this Centre, but there are a number of serious disadvantages in siting it in York and the interests of other staff have to be considered as well.
§ Sir D. Kaberryasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what was the result of the preferences made by the members 254W of the Inland Revenue departments in Yorkshire concerned with the siting of the Automatic Data Processing Centre.
§ Mr. MacDermotThis Centre is to take over the P.A.Y.E. work of tax districts in Northumberland and Durham as well as in Yorkshire and the siting must have regard to the convenience of all the staff in this area.
