asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he has made any decision as to the steps to be taken to assist the British film-producing industry?

The PRESIDENT of the BOARD of TRADE (Sir Philip Cunliffe-Lister)

No, Sir. I am still awaiting a report from the cinema industry.

Sir F. MEYER

Will the right hon. Gentleman be ready to take steps when this much delayed report is presented?

I am very anxious to get this report, and I shall be glad if my hon. Friend will tell me how to accelerate it.
