HC Deb 28 February 1968 vol 759 c376W
Mr. Cordle

asked the Minister of Transport how many people are employed in administration in each of the nationalised industries for which she is responsible.

Mr. John Morris:

I regret that the information is not readily available in precisely the form requested, but the following information from the Boards shows the position at the end of 1967:

British Railways Board
Salaried staff 83,478
British Waterways Board
Administrative, technical and clerical staff 619
British Transport Docks Board
Administrative, technical and clerical staff 1,769
London Transport Board
Administrative, technical, clerical and control staff 5,861

The Transport Holding Company tell me that the present total staff of the Company itself, excluding subsidiaries, is 50.
