HC Deb 12 April 1933 vol 276 c2583W
Mr. LLEWELLYN-JONES

asked the Home Secretary if he proposes to intro duce at an early date legislation to give effect to the recommendations of the Select Committee on Sky Writing?

Sir J. GILMOUR

It is not proposed to consider the question of introducing legislation until some experience has been gained of the effectiveness of the voluntary control which is being exercised by a body representative of advertisers, advertising agents, firms engaged in sky writing, and other interests which has been set up in accordance with the recommendation contained in paragraph 44 of the Report of the Select Committee. Should legislation ultimately prove to be necessary, the experience of the working of the voluntary system will provide useful knowledge of the practical difficulties for which provision may have to be made.
