February 12, 1947 (20th Parliament, 3rd Session)

Mr. CLAXTON:

No service has any deputy or associate deputy particularly associated with that service. The deputy and associate deputies are appointed by the government, and their duties are given to them in accordance with their functions with regard to the department and all three services, and not having regard to any particular service. One associate deputy will deal with finance and supply and another will deal with personnel and pay.
