HC Deb 01 March 1949 vol 462 c26W
48. Mr. Irving

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer for what purpose his Department is recruiting specialised labour in the City of London.

Sir S. Cripps

There has been no such recruitment. Misunderstanding has apparently arisen from action taken by the Treasury to revise the lists which it keeps regularly of persons who may be suitable and willing to undertake various types of public service.
