§ Mr. Martenasked the Minister of Housing and Local Government why the 154W percentage of disabled staff in his Department and the Land Commission is below 3 per cent.
§ Mr. GreenwoodThe percentage of registered disabled staff employed by the Land Commission is 4 per cent. and by the Department 2 per cent.
The Civil Service Commission recruits and assigns the majority of staff of both Departments; only appointments to unestablished posts are within departmental responsibility. We are always happy to consider the registered disabled for such posts but few applications are received from them.
