§ 45. Sir T. Mooreasked the Prime Minister if he will consider publishing month by month the results of his appeal to the nation on 24th October in appropriate statistical form.
§ The Prime Minister (Mr. Attlee)The very full monthly statistics now published concerning production, productivity and exports show the progress which the country has made and will continue to make. It is not feasible to single out and give statistical form to the particular results which may follow from my addresses to the nation.
§ Sir T. MooreDoes not the Prime Minister think that it would be a considerable encouragement to those who are responding to this appeal, to have a periodical acknowledgment of their success, especially as the right hon. Gentleman was able to give at the Mansion House dinner some particular examples?
§ The Prime MinisterI gave some examples, but it was not necessary or indeed meant to include everybody. I thought that to give some examples would encourage others. I am glad to say that there are many other examples coming forward, but I do not think that these would be susceptible to statistical form.
