§ 30. Sir WILLIAM BYLESasked the Prime Minister whether the events of the War may be officially communicated more freely to the public; and whether, with a view to stimulate voluntary recruiting and other manifestations of national patriotism, he can direct a considerable relaxation of the strict censorship of news now exercised by the Press Bureau?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI must refer my hon. Friend to the reply which I gave yesterday to a question on this subject. As I then stated, all information that can be given without prejudice to the public interest is given to the public through the Press Bureau, fully and at once.
§ Sir W. BYLESIs the right hon. Gentleman aware that the French and German public are supplied with much fuller information?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI really do not know what information they have.
