§ Mr. Thurtleasked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether steps similar to those already taken by local authorities are being taken by the responsible authorities in Government Departments in Whitehall, to satisfy themselves that they can count upon the complete loyalty of all members of their staffs should any special state of emergency arise?
§ Captain CrookshankAs the hon. Member is aware, the Prime Minister has recently issued a message to all persons holding responsible positions under the Crown and he may rest assured that heads of Departments are alive to their responsibility for seeing that no one is engaged or retained on their staff whose loyalty is open to doubt.
