Lieut.-Colonel Sir Thomas Moore
asked the Prime Minister whether he is yet in a position to indicate the future form of government and administration in the North African States?
The Deputy Prime Minister
(Mr. Attlee)
I would refer my hon. and gallant Friend to the reply which I gave yesterday in answer to a Question by my hen. Friend the Member for Plaistow (Mr. Thorne), to which I have nothing to add.
Sir T. Moore
Is the process of discarding Vichy officials proceeding satisfactorily?
Mr. Attlee
Perhaps my hon. and gallant Friend will put that Question down.
Mr. Shinwell
Will my right hon. Friend make it clear that we are not fighting this war in order to acquire more territory?
Mr. Attlee
That has been made abundantly clear.
