Mr. A. T. DAVIESasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the annual cost of the Press Departments attached to the various Ministries during or since the War: whether they are now necessary; and whether it is proposed to abolish all or any of them as unnecessary in the near future, considering the large number of officials in those Departments who are capable of performing the work now done?
Mr. CHAMBERLAINThe information is being collected, and I will send it to my hon. Friend in a few days.
