HC Deb 22 February 1967 vol 741 c304W
Mr. Evelyn King

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government what is the total cost per head of local town and country planning staffs in the counties of Surrey, Hampshire, Dorset, Cornwall, Wiltshire, and Devonshire, respectively, and nationally.

Mr. Willey

The local authorities are not responsible to my right hon. Friend for the staff they employ to carry out their statutory functions. The Department, therefore, has no record of the numbers of staff employed on this work.
