HC Deb 06 December 1927 vol 211 c1160
13. Colonel DAY

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether his Department has received any official information from any source of any films that have been banned altogether or censored in any of the Dominions during the 12 months ended to the last convenient date; and will he give full particulars?

Sir P. CUNLIFFE-LISTER

The only official sources of such information are the proceedings of the censorship authorities in the various Dominions, and their published reports which have reached my Department do not give particulars of the individual films censored by them.

Colonel DAY

Cannot the right hon. Gentleman make inquiries as to this censorship?

Sir P. CUNLIFFE-LISTER

I do not think any useful purpose would be served by doing so.
