HC Deb 27 October 1932 vol 269 c1190W
Sir F. SANDERSON

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether, in view of the number of Irish nationals in the Civil Service and the anti-British sentiment that prevails amongst members of the Irish Free State, he will consider the advisability of making it a condition of permanent appointment in the Civil Service that all applicants shall first take the Oath of Allegiance?

Mr. HORE BELISHA

Action on the lines suggested is not in contemplation.
