HC Deb 22 January 1924 vol 169 c691
6. Mr. FREDERICK ROBERTS

asked the Postmaster-General whether, in accordance with the provisions of the Telegraph Act, the contract entered into between himself and the Press Association, dated the 20th October, 1922, has been laid before Parliament; and, if not, will he state the reason?

The POSTMASTER - GENERAL (Sir Laming Worthington-Evans)

The licence granted to the Press Association, dated the 20th October, 1922, has not been laid before Parliament, and I am advised that the Telegraph Acts do not impose upon the Post Office any obligation to place a licence of that description on the Table of the House.
