HC Deb 09 March 1953 vol 512 cc811-2
4. Mr. Tilney

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether, in view of the fact that the Governments of member States have assumed the responsibility for the activities of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation Information Service in their respective countries, he will consider the preparation by his Department, for publication by Her Majesty's Stationery Office, of a simple folder or pamphlet for wide distribution describing in non-technical terms the objects and character of the North Atlantic Treaty, the necessity for it, and the principal measures taken by the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation to achieve the purpose of the Treaty.

Mr. Nutting

Yes, Sir. Such a leaflet is being produced for distribution in this country in connection with the fourth anniversary of the signing of the North Atlantic Treaty on 4th April. I have arranged for copies to be placed in the Library of the House.

Mr. Tilney

Is my hon. Friend aware that this news will receive great attention by all those who believe in the Atlantic community?
