HC Deb 06 March 1968 vol 760 c102W
89. Mr. Marten

asked the Secretary of State for Defence why the number of qualified engineers and scientists working in defence research establishments was greater at the end of 1967 than it was at the end of 1964.

Mr. Reynolds

The main reasons for the increase were the regrading and reallocation of staff; the filling of vacancies; and additional work on hand.
