HC Deb 08 November 1939 vol 353 c238W
Mr. Bartlett

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Information how many members of the Advisory Council have earned their living in journalism or publicity?

Sir E. Grigg

While I am not in a position to give a precise answer to the hon. Member's question, I can inform him that at least 8 out of the 24 members of the Advisory Council have been in the course of their careers, or are still, closely associated with journalism or publicity work.
