Mr. DAYasked the President of the Board of Trade whether his attention has been called to the tendency that exists among sonic renters and exhibitors to ignore the requirements of Part I of the Cinematograph Films Act, 1927; and what action he has taken to see that these provisions are carried out?
§ Mr. RUNCIMANI am aware that it is alleged that the requirements of Part I of the Cinematograph Films Act, 1927, are not always observed, and I will certainly consider a prosecution in any case where satisfactory evidence is forthcoming.
§ Mr. RUNCIMANThe subject has been examined.
§ Mr. DAYWill the right hon. Gentleman draw the special attention of the committee which is sitting on the subject to these allegations?
