HC Deb 29 May 1935 vol 302 c1113
16. Mr. SIMMONDS

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Air for what period of years the Government has committed itself to Imperial Airways, Limited, in connection with the new Empire developments?

Sir P. SASSOON

The details of the scheme are still under consideration, and no agreement with Imperial Airways has yet been executed.

Mr. SIMMONDS

Can the Under-Secretary assure the House that, in connection with this agreement, the Government will not continue to undertake to Imperial Airways that they will not assist any other company if it should be desirable to do so during the currency of the agreement

Sir P. SASSOON

I do not think I can say any more.

Mr. PERKINS

Will the agreement be submitted to the House?

Sir P. SASSOON

I should require notice of that question.
