Mr. HAYES
asked the Home Secretary the number of persons in receipt of remuneration for services in connection with the special constabulary in London and the provinces, respectively; the nature of the appointments; and the scales of remuneration?
Mr. BRIDGEMAN
In the case of the Metropolitan Special Constabulary the particulars are as follow:
| Weekly Remuneration. | |||
| £ | s. | d. | |
| At the Head Office. | |||
| 1 Staff Officer | 12 | 10 | 0 |
| 1 Finance Officer | 12 | 10 | 0 |
| 1 Clerk | 5 | 0 | 0 |
| 1 Assistant Clerk and Telephone Operator | 4 | 0 | 0 |
| 1 Typist | 3 | 5 | 0 |
| 1 Girl Messenger | 0 | 15 | 0 |
| 1 Girl Messenger | 0 | 14 | 0 |
| 38 | 14 | 0 | |
| At Divisional Offices (22). | |||
| 1 Clerk at each of the 22 offices, at sums varying from £1 to £4 | 62 | 0 | 0 |
| Total | £100 | 14 | 0 |
In addition, there are 22 Divisional Commanders, who are paid a total of £84 a week to cover personal and out-of-pocket expenses. In the City of London there is one Staff Officer, who receives £8 weekly to cover all expenses incurred by him. I regret I have not the desired particulars in the case of the provinces, but the expenditure involved will be quite small.
