HC Deb 30 July 1940 vol 363 c1172W
Mr. Granville

asked the Prime Minister why it is that the War Office, and its associate Ministry of Supply, is represented in Parliament by six Ministers, while the Admiralty is represented by three Ministers and the Air Ministry and its associate Minstry of Aircraft Production is represented by four Ministers of the Crown?

The Prime Minister

I would remind my hon. Friend that both the Ministry of Supply and the Ministry of Aircraft Production are separate and distinct Ministries. Such differences as exist in Ministerial representation are due to the inherent differences of the several Departments.
