§ 45. Mr. Bowlesasked the Prime Minister whether he will appoint one Cabinet Minister to be exclusively responsible for dealing with the needs and problems of demobilisation.
§ The Prime Minister (Mr. Attlee)I see no reason to alter the present system by which my right hon. Friend the Minister of Labour, in conjunction with the Service Ministers, is responsible for putting into effect the demobilisation scheme which has been approved by the Cabinet.
§ Mr. Michael FootDespite the inability of the Government to appoint one Minister to deal with all demobilisation problems, would it be possible to appoint a Minister to bring pressure on all three Services to secure the release as quickly as possible of a couple of good fullbacks to stand up to the Moscow Dynamos?
