HC Deb 05 June 1947 vol 438 c27W
11. Sir T. Moore

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether his attention has been drawn to the dismissal of Messrs. Rickards, Pretty and Dugdale, members of the technical staff of his Department; and whether he is satisfied that the Department, in dismissing these officers, has taken into account the Redundancy Agreement entered into between the staff and the official sides of the National Whitley Council, the preference by the Government for the retention of ex-Service men of the 1914–18 war and the obligations of the Government to disabled officers.

Sir S. Cripps

Yes, Sir
