If F is a (commutative) field let denote the class of all groups G such that every irreducible FG-module has finite dimension over F. The introduction to [7] contains motivation for considering these classes and surveys some of the results to date concerning them. In [7] for every field F we determined the finitely generated soluble groups in . Here, for fields F of characteristic zero, we determine, at least in principle, the soluble groups in . Our main result is the following.
