HC Deb 25 June 1942 vol 380 cc2152-3
52. Mr. Riley

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power whether the appointment of Lord Hyndley of Meads as Controller-General of the coal industry provides for his relinquishment of the many directorships which he holds in colliery companies; and whether, while he is Controller-General, he will cease to have any official position in any colliery company?

Major Lloyd George

Lord Hyndley resigned all his colliery directorships on accepting his present appointment. The answer to the second part of the Question is, "Yes."
