45. Wing-Commander Hulbert

asked the Prime Minister what arrangements are being made for the unveiling of the Memorial to His late Majesty King George V in October next.

The Prime Minister (Mr. Attlee)

His Majesty The King has graciously undertaken to unveil the memorial to His late Majesty King George V on 22nd October next. Detailed arrangements are being made by the National Memorial Committee with the assistance of my right hon. Friend the Minister of Works and will be announced later.

Wing-Commander Hulbert

In view of the world wide affection in which the late King was held, will the right hon. Gentleman ensure that representatives of the Empire will be present on this occasion?

The Prime Minister

That will be a matter for consideration and, no doubt, will be considered by the National Memorial Committee.
