HC Deb 11 April 1927 vol 205 c24
41. Major COHEN

asked the Postmaster-General why he has refused the request of the British Legion to broadcast their annual Cenotaph service on Whitsunday, in view of the value of this service to thousands of ex-Service men and widows and dependants of ex-Service men who are unable to be in London on this date?

The ASSISTANT POSTMASTER-GENERAL (Viscount Wolmer)

No such request has been made to me. The matter falls within the province of the First Commissioner of Works.

Major COHEN

I put my question down to the First. Commissioner of Works but it was altered at the Table to the Postmaster-General.

Viscount WOLMER

I am sorry that should have occurred. The matter has nothing to do with the Post Office at all. Perhaps my hon. and gallant Friend will put it down again to the Office of Works.
