HC Deb 30 June 1980 vol 987 c446W
Mr. Ron Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what is his estimate of the number of redundancies likely in his Department in Carlisle and Cumbria, respectively, as a result of the Government's policy of reducing the number of civil servants.

Mr. Patrick Jenkin

The reduction in manpower in my Department will be effected, as far as possible, without redundancies and none is expected in Carlisle and Cumbria.
