The necessity for an increase of 50 posts of Card Marker is to enable a method of checking to be made on marked cards so as to reduce errors which have been found to be high in the Pilot Land Census conducted in October 1960.
The 5 posts of Clerical Assistant are required to deal with the expected increase of work in the Statistical Section.
