HC Deb 02 August 1939 vol 350 c2421W
Mr. R. Morgan

asked the Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs whether his attention has been called to the South African resentment at fictitious statements circulated by the German broadcasting station at Zeesen; and whether all statements of this kind are brought to the notice of the British Broadcasting Corporation to ensure that proper corrections arc made in the Empire broadcasts?

Sir T. Inskip

As regards the first part of the question I am aware that certain adverse comments with regard to the Zeesen broadcasts have appeared in newspapers published in the Union of South Africa. As regards the second part of the question, I understand that the British Broadcasting Corporation are aware of the situation.
