HC Deb 24 November 1981 vol 13 cc344-5W
Mr. Philip Holland

asked the Secretary of State for Employment whether in accordance with procedures laid out in the Civil Service Department's guide on non-departmental public bodies, he has recently carried out checks on staff numbers and gradings in the Manpower Services Commission; and whether these enabled him to identify areas for savings in expenditure and manpower in either the commission or his Department.

Mr. Peter Morrison

I shall reply to my hon. Friend as soon as possible.
