§ 5. Mr. BOTTOMLEYasked the Secretary of State for War whether he will now consider the question of discontinuing the censorship of soldiers' letters addressed to members of their own families?
§ The SECRETARY of STATE for WAR (Mr. Churchill)The censorship of soldiers' letters will be abolished as soon as possible. Regimental censorship has been abolished except in areas where operations are still in progress.
§ Colonel ASHLEYWould the right hon. Gentleman make representations so that the letters of Members of the House of Commons should now be removed from under the Censorship?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLI do not think the time has yet come to remove that censorship; when it does come all the provisions attached to it will no doubt fall together.
