HC Deb 16 November 1914 vol 68 cc205-6
76. Mr. HOGGE

asked the Under-Secretary for War whether he could distribute to Members copies of such leaflets issued by the War Office as would enable them to reply to correspondents without continually having to make inquiries at the War Office?

Mr. TENNANT

If there were any general desire on the part of hon. Members to receive leaflets as issued from time to time, perhaps some arrangement could be made, but, without assurance of such general desire, I should not like to inflict on hon. Members more printed matter than they already normally receive. I may add, too, that leaflets are necessarily altered from time to time. Every effort will, of course, be made to comply immediately with individual requests for leaflets, and I am to-day sending to the hon. Member a small packet for his use. I appreciate my hon. Friend's desire to relieve over-pressed Departments.
