§ 45. Earl WINTERTONasked the Prime Minister whether prior to the debate on defence and sufficiently in advance of it to enable hon. Members to study the figures, he will issue a White Paper showing the actual strength of British and German military first-line aircraft, respectively, at the present time, together with all available information as to the age of design in each case?
§ The PRIME MINISTER (Mr. Ramsay MacDonald)The Government is very anxious to put the House and the country in possession of all available information in regard to Germany's air development. This cannot, however, be conveniently done in the form proposed by my Noble Friend. As full a statement as possible will be made early in the forthcoming Debate.
