HC Deb 17 October 1916 vol 86 cc346-7
71. Mr. HODGE

asked whether any information can be given as to the more efficient protection of the North-West counties against aircraft raids?

Major BAIRD

I regret that I cannot make any detailed statement as to the disposition of the defences against air raids, but I can assure my hon. Friend that their development as regards all the areas which might be attacked is being steadily pursued.
