Mr. E. HARVEYasked the Minister of National Service whether he will arrange for copies of the printed National Service Instructions to be placed in the Library of the House?
§ Mr. BECKIt would not, I think, be useful to place copies of all National Service Instructions in the Library of the House. The bulk of these Instructions deal with administrative detail of no general interest, and moreover would only be comprehensible to those not conversant with the inner working of the Ministry if accompanied by explanatory memoranda. It has been the custom of the Ministry of National Service to place Instructions of general interest, not dealing merely with technical detail, in the Library, and it is proposed to continue this policy.
