§ 21. Mr. Dayasked the Home Secretary whether he is prepared to set up a committee to inquire into the present censorship of films?
§ Sir S. HoareI do not contemplate the appointment of any committee of inquiry, but if the hon. Member refers to the changes which it is proposed to make in the composition and terms of reference of the Advisory Committee referred to in the answer which I gave to his question of 3rd June, the position is that the necessary steps are being taken for the selection of the members of this committee, but I am not yet in a position to make a further announcement on the subject.
§ Mr. DayIs the right hon. Gentleman satisfied with the manner in which the censorship of films operates?
§ Sir S. HoareI have not any reason to think that it is not working well, and if the hon. Gentleman has any criticisms to make, perhaps he will let me have them.
