Sir Waldron Smithers
asked the Minister of Supply who paid for the £13 loss in labour and material spent on private work at Foxbury Inspectorate of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering
Mr. G. R. Strauss
The loss was borne by my Department.
Sir W. Smithers
Was no disciplinary action taken against those persons who misused Government time and labour?
Why were they not made to pay for the loss when they abused their privilege?
Mr. Strauss
We thought that a severe reprimand, which they received, was the appropriate course to take on this occasion.
