-
The exceptional circumstances which existed in Ireland in 1920 made it desirable to make new arrangements with regard to the exercise of Treasury control over fresh expenditure, and on 25 May 1920 the Chancellor of the Exchequer appointed Sir John Anderson to be Joint Under Secretary for Ireland. All the Treasury's Irish business was then conducted from Dublin Castle until early in 1922. Later in that year the work was transferred to London, Mr A R Waterfield remaining in Dublin as Treasury remembrancer. In October 1922 his post was abolished and the Office of Treasury Remembrancer and Treasury Assistant Secretary for Ireland was closed down.
