§ 84. Mr. ASHLEYasked the Prime Minister whether he will give an early day for the discussion of the Motion on the powers of the Air Board, standing in the name of the hon. Member for Blackpool and other hon. Members?
§ The PRIME MINISTERYes, Sir; facilities will certainly be given for this discussion, but I cannot yet name an exact date.
§ Mr. ASHLEYMay we have this discussion before the decision of the War Committee and not afterwards, so that we may express an opinion on the subject?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI cannot promise that, but the House will certainly have a full opportunity of discussing it.
§ Mr. BILLINGHave the naval branches of the Air Service been held up pending these constantly postponed decisions of the Government?
§ The PRIME MINISTERNo, Sir.
