HC Deb 20 June 1977 vol 933 c355W
Mr. Wakeham

asked the Secretary of State for Trade (1) what is the current

Mid June 1977 Mid June 1976 Mid June 1975 Mid June 1974
Outstanding applications for registration … 22,530 460 160 Not available
Delay output of new registrations … 250 490 400 Not available
Staff employed in processing new applications … 10 16 13 16

As I indicated in my reply to the hon. Member on 27th May, it recently became necessary to divert staff from work on new registrations to other functions of the Registry and the adequacy of the staffing is being reviewed.
