HC Deb 09 March 1960 vol 619 c35W
Mr. G. M. Thomson

asked the Minister of Education if he will give details of the number of persons, and their official rank, employed on a full-time basis by his Department dealing with educational matters as they relate to the countries of the Commonwealth.

Sir D. Eccles

Matters relating to Commonwealth education are mainly dealt with in the branch of my Department which is concerned with overseas relations generally. No officers deal exclusively with Commonwealth education but a number spend an appreciable part of their time on this work.
