HC Deb 15 June 1944 vol 400 cc2107-8
3. Sir H. Williams

asked the Minister of Labour if he will arrange to make available to Members a supply of the pamphlet "The Story of Britain's Mobilisation for War."

Mr. Bevin

I am informed that copies of this publication are available to Members, on application to the Stationery Office on the usual form.

Sir H. Williams

Having regard to the fact that the information contained in this pamphlet has frequently been refused to the House on security grounds, why is it now published in pamphlet form available to the public?

Mr. Bevin

There is nothing in the pamphlet that has been refused to the House on security grounds.

Sir H. Williams

Does the right hon. Gentleman remember the Questions I have asked about the total number of people employed?

Mr. Bevin

No Minister, however good his memory, could remember all the questions the hon. Member asks.

Sir H. Williams

Does the right hon. Gentleman remember his own answers?
