§ 54. Mr. Edward Wakefieldasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what uniform has been prescribed for use on ceremonial occasions by female members of His Majesty's Foreign Service.
§ Mr. Ernest DaviesIt has not been deemed necessary or advisable to prescribe a uniform for lady members of His Majesty's Foreign Service.
§ Mr. WakefieldWill the Minister consider the suggestion that has been made to substitute brooches for breeches?
§ Mr. DaviesThat suggestion is being considered. There has been no pressure for these uniforms. We would not like to prescribe in the matter of ladies' dresses.
