HC Deb 27 November 1951 vol 494 cc1115-6
61. Mr. De la Bère

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury if he will ensure that in connection with the 1952–53 Estimates the Financial provision made for Government exhibitions and films is reduced.

Mr. Boyd-Carpenter

Information expenditure of all kinds is under energetic review. The object of the review of this and all other expenditure is to achieve substantial economies. I am sorry, however, that it is too early yet to specify particular savings.

Mr. De la Bère

I thank my hon. Friend very much indeed.
