§ Mr. W. R. Duckworthasked the Secretary of State for Air whether there is any organised system of affiliation of air squadrons to specific towns; and whether, in that case, he can state the number of towns thus affiliated?
§ Sir K. WoodYes, Sir. An organised system of affiliation of air squadrons to particular towns has been in operation since the 1st April this year, and I am sending to my hon. Friend a copy of a communiqué on the subject which was issued by my Department. At the present date 54 towns have taken part in the scheme and further affiliations will be arranged from time to time.
