asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland when it is proposed to remove the censorship on news from Ireland?

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL for IRELAND (Mr. A. W. Samuels)

My right hon. Friend the Chief Secretary is not at present in a position to make any statement on the subject.

Major O'NEILL

Will the announcement that the Press Bureau is to come to an end at the end of the month have any connection with the censorship in Ireland?

Mr. SAMUELS

My right hon. Friend is not in a position to make any statement and I am not.
