Directly responsible to me are ten Deputy Secretaries, eighty-seven Under Secretaries and two hundred and nineteen Assistant Secretaries. Directly responsible to the Principal Private Secretaries are plai +n Private Secretaries. The Prime Minister will be appointing two Parliamentary Under-Secretaries and you will be appointing your ow +n Parliamentary Private Secretary.' 'Can they all type?' I joked. 'None of us can type, Minister,' replied Sir Humphrey smoothly. 'M +rs McKay types - she is your Secretary.' I couldn't tell whether or not he was joking. 'What a pity,' I sai +d. 'We could have opened an agency.' Sir Humphrey and Bernard laughed. 'Very droll, sir,' said Sir Humphrey. 'Most amusing, sir,' said Bernard. Were they genuinely amused at my wit, or just being rather patronising? 'I suppose the +y all say that, do they?' I ventured. Sir Humphrey reassured me on that. 'Certainly not, Minister,' he replied. 'Not quite all.' [p14 _The complete Yes Minister // The Diaries of a Cabinet Minister b +y the Right Hon.
