§ 38. Mr. Emyrs Hughesasked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster to what extent he is now responsible for the publicity in connection with recruiting for Her Majesty's Forces.
§ The Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster (Dr. Charles Hill)While I am responsible for the co-ordination of Government information services, individual Service Ministers remain responsible for their own information output, including recruitment publicity.
§ Mr. HughesDoes the right hon. Gentleman think that he could take some responsibility for the co-ordination of recruiting in Scotland? Is he aware that the Royal Scots Fusiliers succeeded in December in recruiting only four and the Highland Light Infantry only three?
§ Dr. HillI am sure that the information the hon. Gentleman gives will be of interest to my right hon. Friend.
