HC Deb 19 July 1944 vol 402 c175
19. Mr. Sorensen

asked the Secretary for Air whether, in view of the effectiveness of pictorial posters to encourage war savings, he will adopt a similar means of emphasising the need of airmen fulfilling their civic responsibility by registering immediately for future electoral purposes.

Captain Balfour

Many steps have already been taken to impress upon all airmen and airwomen the importance of fulfilling their responsibilities as Parliamentary electors and to inform them how to do so. I am, however, obliged to the hon. Member for his suggestion which I will certainly consider.

Mr. Sorensen

When can the right hon. and gallant Gentleman make some announcement on the adoption of what I suggest is a very effective means of drawing the attention of the men, to their civic duties?

Captain Balfour

I understand that, already, something on the lines of what the hon. Member has suggested is coming out in one of our next issues of one of the Royal Air Force publications.
