HC Deb 23 May 1932 vol 266 c5
7. Captain PETER MACDONALD

asked the Secretary of State for India whether he can now make any further statement as to whether arrangements can be made with the Government of India to enable the necessary co-operation to be given for Imperial Airways to operate a service from this country to Australia at an early date?

Sir S. HOARE

I am unable to make any statement at present.

Captain MACDONALD

Can the right hon. Gentleman say when he expects to be in a position to make a statement?

Sir S. HOARE

No, I cannot. This is a complicated matter and has been under consideration for some time.
