§ 46. Mr. THURTLEasked the Prime Minister whether he will take whatever steps may seem appropriate to ascertain, by consultation with party leaders or otherwise, whether any considerable body of opinion exists in favour of modifying the ceremonial hitherto carried out in connection with Armistice Day?
§ The PRIME MINISTERHis Majesty's Government are confident that the ceremonial at the Cenotaph service on Armistice Day is in harmony with the feelings of the majority of the nation. I do not think, therefore, that the consultation suggested by the hon. Member is necessary.
