HC Deb 08 July 1968 vol 768 cc33-4W
Mr. William Price

asked the Minister of Social Security what financial savings have so far been made as a result of the amalgamation of the Rugby office with Coventry.

Mr. Pentland

I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply I gave him on 17th June. There was a saving of five staff in this case.—[Vol. 766, c.99–100.]

Mr. William Price

asked the Minister of Social Security what advice she received from the local advisory committee about the amalgamation of the Rugby office with Coventry.

Mr. Pentland

This question was placed before the Local Advisory Committee on 7th March, 1967, but the committee decided to postpone consideration of it, pending the reconstitution of the committee. At the meeting of the reconstituted committee in October, 1967, the arrangements were discussed but no recommendation was made.
