HC Deb 18 February 1947 vol 433 c165W
115. Mr. Swingler

asked the Minister of Defence what special steps have been taken in the past six months in the three Services to ensure the greatest economy in the use of manpower.

Mr. Alexander

Special measures have been adopted by all three Services in recent months to ensure the maximum economy in manpower. I am hoping to deal with this question in the Debate next week on the recently published Defence White Paper.
