HC Deb 11 July 1928 vol 219 cc2234-5
47. Mr. AMMON

asked the Prime Minister whether the Report of the Committee of the Imperial Conference on Imperial Wireless and Cable Communications will be published in time to allow for discussion in Parliament before the end of the Session?

45. Mr. DAY

asked the Prime Minister whether he has now received the Report from the Imperial Wireless and Cable Conference; and is he now in a position to make a statement thereon?

The PRIME MINISTER (Mr. Baldwin)

The Conference has submitted its Report, the recommendations of which now have to be examined by the Governments of the several parts of the Empire concerned. I hope that it will be found possible to publish this Report and to make a statement thereon before the end of this Session.

Mr. AMMON

Can we have an assurance that the matter will be discussed in the House? Did the right hon. Gentleman see that it has been intimated that that would be done before the House rose?

The PRIME MINISTER

I shall do everything that I can to secure that there is a Debate. I have to-day sent very urgent cables to every Dominion asking them to expedite their reply.
