§ Lord Fermoyasked the Minister of Information why his Department has 2,719 employees in the U.S.A.; and whether he will explain their activities.
§ Mr. BrackenThere are 100 administrative or technical officers on the staff of the British Information Services in the United States. Other employees such as clerks, Press clippers, typists, office boys and messengers number 286. The total is, therefore, less than one-seventh of the figure given in the Noble Lord's Question.
