§ 9. Wing Commander Hulbertasked the Secretary of State for Air what proportion of Fighter Command it is his intention to equip with two-seater all-weather fighters.
§ Mr. A. HendersonIt would not be in the public interest to give the precise figures, but I can say that the proportion will be substantial.
§ Wing Commander HulbertWhile appreciating the reluctance of the right hon. and learned Gentleman to make these figures public, may I ask if he will give an assurance that both he and the Air Staff are seized of their importance?
§ Mr. HendersonYes, Sir. I happen to know what the figures are and that was why I was able to say that the proportion will be substantial.
