In accordance with the war-time electoral pact, neither the Labour nor the Liberal parties fielded a candidate. The Conservatives did not defend the seat either, instead supporting the National candidate, Sir Andrew Duncan, who had been brought in from industry to serve as President of the Board of Trade. There being no other candidates, Duncan was returned unopposed.
