HC Deb 14 July 1976 vol 915 c181W
Mr. Michael Latham

asked the Secretary of State for Trade to what legislative or policy factors he attributes the increase in non-industrial staff in his Department from 7,683 on 1st January 1976 to 7,916 on 1st April 1976.

Mr. Clinton Davis

The increase is almost entirely attributable to the dispersal of the Companies Registration Office. The build-up of staff at Cardiff and the rundown in London will give rise to a temporary overlap of about 200 during the current financial year.
