(Figures taken from the Historical Series printed
in issues of Civil Service Statistics; the numbers back
to 1970 were estimated on the basis of the current method of calculating
full-time equivalent staff. The numbers for 1967 to 1969 are
calculated on an older basis and therefore probably understate
the totals for those years.)
