HC Deb 05 May 1930 vol 238 c619
38. Mr. THURTLE

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if all recruitment for the Foreign Office staff is by means of competitive examination; and, if not, by what other means recruitment is effected?

Mr. A. HENDERSON

The answer to the first part of the question is in the affirmative. The second part of the question does not, therefore, arise.
