§ Mr. BENNETT-GOLDNEYasked the Prime Minister if he can now give any approximate date when this House may expect a Report from the Committee of Defence with regard to the possibility of invasion or of serious raids by a hostile force; and if he will say how many meetings of the Sub-Committee appointed to deal with the above question have already been held?
§ The PRIME MINISTERThe Committee of Imperial Defence will not report to the House, but, when the proceedings are concluded and have been considered, I hope to make a statement on the subject referred to. There have been thirteen meetings of the Sub-Committee, which has latterly been sitting two days a week. It will be some time before the inquiry is concluded.
