HC Deb 11 May 1939 vol 347 cc678-9
53. Mr. Mander

asked the Home Secretary when the report of his Advisory Committee on the question of non-inflammable sub-standard films was received; what decision has been arrived at; and whether it is intended to publish the report?

Sir S. Hoare

I have just received the report and as soon as my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Scotland and I have been able to examine it, there will be no delay in considering the question of publication.

Mr. Mander

If I put a question down in about a fortnight's time, will it be possible for the right hon. Gentleman to give the decision?

Sir S. Hoare

I could not say, but the hon. Member might put his question down, and then we can see.

Mr. Day

Will the Minister consider introducing legislation to carry out the recommendations of the report?

56. Mr. Lyons

asked the Home Secretary how many meetings have taken place of the Films Advisory Committee?

Sir S. Hoare

The committee have held six meetings.

Mr. Lyons

Can my right hon. Friend say when he expects to receive any of the committee's recommendations?

Sir S. Hoare

I think I have already received a recommendation about the matter raised in the question of another hon. Member I have just answered.
