§ Mr. R. Taylorasked the Secretary of State for War whether he will give the numbers and respective nationalities before naturalisation of all naturalised aliens who are engaged in any capacity in the War Office?
§ Mr. EdenI know of only one case, that of a temporary male clerk who was a Czech before naturalisation. He served in the British Army for 2½ years during the last war.
§ Mr. R. Gibsonasked the Secretary of State for War how many men carrying on the duties of automobile assessors have, since 1st August, 1939, offered their services to the War Office; and how many have been accepted to date?
§ Mr. EdenI regret that the information asked for is not available, though I have received a letter from the Institute of Automobile Assessors offering to submit the names of members of the Institute who would be willing to serve as officers to deal with investigations and general claims work arising out of accidents in which Service vehicles are involved.
