Economic Policy Foamulation in the Treasury in the Post-War Period

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  26 March 2020

Extract

It is a great honour to be invited to deliver this lecture to mark the National Institute's Jubilee. The Treasury and the National institute have been neighbours since the Institute moved to Westminster during the war. We have benefited from the exchange of staff and ideas, and I am delighted that the present Director is a former colleague from the Treasury.

The Dialogus, in 1177, said that:

‘The institution of the Treasury is confirmed well by its antiquity and also by the authority of the great men that sit there’.

Robert Hall, whose Memorial Service took place earlier today, was one of those great men. He made a notable contribution to government over many years and followed that by equally distinguished guidance to the National Institute after he retired.
