It’s worse than that. All census staff were recalled from the field when the announcement was made yesterday, as all government employees were told to stop work as a mark of respect. I can imagine what the Duke would have to say about that... They were also told not to work between 12:00 and 13:00, though they’d be paid if they were rostered to work. And the same applies for the day of his funeral. Which seems an extraordinary overreaction on the part of the civil service.... Especially as census staff were out on Good Friday, Easter Sunday and Easter Monday. Which seems rather more insensitive, even to an atheist...
