HC Deb 08 February 1938 vol 331 cc834-5
29. Captain Peter Macdonald

asked the Secretary of State for War whether, in view of the recent decision to give the Navy control of its own air arm, it is proposed to take any steps to obtain separate control for the Army air arm; and what is the present position in this respect?

The Secretary of State for War (Mr. Hore-Belisha)

No such proposals are under consideration.

Captain Macdonald

Is the right hon. Gentleman satisfied that there is sufficient collaboration between the two Services at present?

Mr. Hore-Belisha
