Derick Heathcoat Amory

Derick Heathcoat-Amory, 1st Viscount Amory (26 December 1899 - 20 January 1981) was a British Conservative politician.

Amory was the son of Sir Ian Murray Heathcote 2nd Bt. He was educated at Eton College and at Christ Church, Oxford. He entered the cabinet under Sir Winston Churchill in July 1954 succeeding Sir Thomas Dugdale as Minister of Agriculture and Fisheries. In October 1954 the Ministry merged with the Ministry of Food still in command of Heathcoat-Amory. Gwilym Lloyd George had previously been in charge of Food. He remained in the post until he became Chancellor of the Exchequer in 1958, under Harold Macmillan. He left the post and was created Viscount Amory on 1 September 1960, one of the last new hereditary peerages created for senior politicians before life peerages became the norm. In his later years, he was Chancellor of the University of Exeter. On his death, the Viscountcy became extinct.
