HC Deb 07 July 1930 vol 241 c51W
Sir A. POWNALL

asked the Home Secretary whether he will consider increasing the powers enjoyed by local authorities with regard to film censor ship, so as to enable them to deal adequately with efforts to introduce subversive propaganda by that method?

Mr. SHORT

I would refer to the reply which I gave to a question by the hon. Member on the 24th June. Local authorities already have ample powers for dealing with this matter.
