HC Deb 15 April 1937 vol 322 c1174
55. Mr. R. C. Morrison

asked the President of the Board of Education whether the recent deputation from the British Film Institute submitted specific proposals to his Department for the development of the use of films as an aid to education; if so, what the proposals were; and what further action he intends to take in the matter?

Mr. Stanley

The discussion which took place two days ago with representatives of the British Film Institute was of an informal nature, and suggestions which were made on both sides for the development of the use of films as an aid to education are being considered by the Board and by the institute.

Mr. Day

Will the President see that the films which are accepted are British films, and not films made in foreign countries?
