Appointments of the type referred to, in so far as my Department is concerned, were mainly in the grades of fuel carrier, night watchman, female cleaner, key punch operator, well-driller and lorry driver, all of which were of a temporary nature. There would have been some hundreds of such appointments in the period mentioned. I think the Deputy will agree that the compilation of the particulars requested would call for an inordinate expenditure of time and effort which he may feel would not be warranted in the circumstances.
