HC Deb 06 December 1926 vol 200 cc1644-5
20. Sir H. BRITTAIN

asked the Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs whether any and, if so, what action is being taken in Australia with regard to the recommendations of the Imperial Conference in connection with British films?

Mr. AMERY

The Report of the Sub-Committee of the Imperial Conference on the subject of films, which has been published, referred to certain action which had already been taken in Australia; but I have no information as to any action taken there since the Conference, and, indeed, there has not been time for the recommendations of the Conference to reach Australia otherwise than in the form of a telegraphed summary.

Sir H. BRITTAIN

Has the right hon. Gentleman seen the cable by Reuter to the effect that the question is now being dealt with by the Commonwealth Legislature?

Mr. AMERY

No, Sir.
