HC Deb 06 June 1918 vol 106 c1752W
Captain WRIGHT

asked the Minister of Munitions whether information affecting an official employed by the Ministry has been laid before Lord Crowe's Committee, to which it was addressed; whether any inquiry has been made by that Committee into the accuracy of the information; and whether the official concerned has been permitted to proceed abroad on behalf of the Ministry in a responsible and well-paid position?

Mr. KELLAWAY

Lord Crewe's Committee received a letter in May last containing certain statements regarding an official of the Ministry. The letter was duly considered by the Committee, but it was not felt that any action was called for. The official in question has proceeded abroad on behalf of the Ministry.
