LORD CURZON'S REPORT.

HC Deb 16 November 1916 vol 87 cc977-8

80. Mr. BILLING

asked if it is proposed to lay Lord Curzon's Report on the Air Service upon the Table of the House?

Mr. BONAR LAW

I would refer the hon. Member to the written answer I gave to the hon. Member for the Canterbury Division on the 14th instant, to which I can add nothing.

Mr. BILLING

Can the right hon. Gentleman say at what time it is likely that this Report will be considered?

Mr. BONAR LAW

By the House?

Mr. BILLING

No, by the Government.

Mr. BONAR LAW

Certainly at an early date—next week at the latest.

Mr. ASHLEY

May we not at least have this Report before the Debate on the powers of the Air Board?

Mr. BONAR LAW

I think not. It was a very confidential document.
