5. Lieutenant-Colonel Sir SAMUEL HOARE

asked what steps have been taken to carry out the recommendations of the Royal Commission on the Civil Service with reference to the Foreign Office and the diplomatic Consular services?

Mr. HARMSWORTH

Proposals on the general lines of the recommendations of the Royal Commission have been under consideration for some time past, and it is hoped that it will be possible to give effect to them at a very early date.
