HC Deb 18 November 1941 vol 376 c190W
Mr. R. C. Morrison

asked the Minister of Information whether he has any statement to make upon the decision not to supply further speakers to any political organisation?

Mr. Thurtle

I do not know of any recent decision on this subject. Both under my right hon. Friend and his predecessor the Ministry's established practice has been not to assist in providing speakers for any meeting unless it is entirely non-political in character. I think there are sound and obvious reasons for this rule.
