Minister for Co-ordination of Defence (1936–1940)

[edit]

Main article:Minister for Co-ordination of Defence

The position ofminister for co-ordination of defence was aBritish Cabinet-level position established in 1936 to oversee and co-ordinate the rearmament of Britain's defences. It was established by the prime minister,Stanley Baldwin, in response to criticism that Britain's armed forces were understrength compared to those ofNazi Germany. When theSecond World War broke out, the new prime ministerNeville Chamberlain formed a smallWar Cabinet and it was expected that the minister would serve as a spokesperson for the three service ministers, thesecretary of state for war, thefirst lord of the admiralty and thesecretary of state for air; however, political considerations resulted in all three posts being included in the Cabinet, and this role proved increasingly redundant. In April 1940 the position was formally wound up and the functions transferred to other ministers.

Minister of Defence (1940–1964)

[edit]

Main articles:Ministry of Defence (1947–1964) andMinister of Defence (United Kingdom)

The post ofminister of defence was responsible for co-ordination of defence and security from its creation in 1940 until its abolition in 1964. The post was aCabinet level post and generally ranked above the three service ministers, some of whom, however, continued to also serve in Cabinet.

On his appointment as prime minister in May 1940,Winston Churchill created for himself the new post of minister of defence. The post was created in response to previous criticism that there had been no clear single minister in charge of the prosecution ofWorld War II. In 1946, the post became the only cabinet-level post representing the military, with the three service ministers – thesecretary of state for war, thefirst lord of the admiralty, and thesecretary of state for air, now formally subordinated to the minister of defence.
