§ 71. Mr. HURDasked the Postmaster-General what measure of co-operation he has been now able to secure from Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and India in providing an Imperial wireless chain; and what reply he is making to the urgent representations sent to him by the Empire Press Union on behalf of the newspaper press of the Empire regarding the inadequacy of the Post Office scheme?
§ Mr. KELLAWAYAs regards the co-operation of the Dominions, I beg to refer the hon. Member to the reply given to his question yesterday, to which I have nothing to add. I would point out, however, that the Imperial wireless scheme was authorised by the Cabinet on the recommendation of a Committee appointed by the Cabinet and was endorsed by the Imperial Conference.
§ Mr. HURDIs the right hon. Gentleman aware that no information whatever was given to me yesterday as to the extent of the co-operation secured between the Imperial Government and the Dominions in this matter?
§ Mr. KELLAWAYI have read the answer, and I have nothing to add to the informatioi given in it.
