§ Mr. Emrys Hughesasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer to what extent the Organisation and Methods Department of the Treasury is responsible for suggesting economies in the expenditure on the Army, Navy and Air forces, respectively.
Mr. AmoryThe Service Departments each have their own Organisation and Methods Divisions and Work Study units. The help given by the Treasury Division consists mainly of advising the three Departments from time to time on specific problems of organisation, method and procedure, or on office mechanisation and equipment. The main Treasury responsibility for controlling Services' expenditure rests with the Treasury Supply and Establishment Divisions who, where appropriate, avail themselves of the advice of the Treasury Organisation and Methods Division.
