HC Deb 20 November 1919 vol 121 c1140
Lord HUGH CECIL (by Private Notice)

asked the Prime Minister whether his attention has been called to the anxiety expressed by sonic Members of this House in regard to the relation between the War Office and the Air Office now existing, and the consequent effects upon the Royal Air Force; whether the Government will make a full statement of their policy in regard to the Air Ministry and the Royal Air Force; and whether they will fix a day for a full discussion of that policy?

The PRIME MINISTER

My attention has been called to a Resolution to that effect carried at a meeting of Members of this House. There has been no change whatever in the policy of the Government in regard to the Air Force, and I see no need for any discussion at present. If, however, there should be any general desire for such a discussion, my right hon. Friend will, I am sure, try to arrange it, but the pressure of business is so great that it will be difficult to find time.
