HOUSE OF COMMONS (SOUND FILM). (Hansard, 16 April 1931)

HC Deb 16 April 1931 vol 251 cc348-9 348

§ 45. Mr. DAY
asked the Prime Minister what is the Government's decision in the matter of the applications made to the Government for the purpose of taking a British sound film of the House of Commons in Session?

§ The PRIME MINISTER
The position is as stated in the reply which I gave to my hon. Friend on 23rd February last, and to which I have nothing to add.

§ Mr. DAY
When the applications are considered, will British companies be considered

349

§ The PRIME MINISTER
It is obvious that the wish of the House is that no company should be considered.

§ Mr. E. BROWN
May I suggest that, if such a thing were done, it should not be done during Question Time.
