HC Deb 15 August 1940 vol 364 cc1003-4W
Mr. Bartlett

asked the Minister of Information whether he is aware that private correspondence is arriving from the United States of America in which comments on the political situation here has been censored on arrival; and by whose order this censorship is carried out?

Mr. Nicolson

I shall be glad to have details of any case where the contents of incoming private correspondence from U.S.A. have been deleted or altered by censorship officials. The censorship instructions provide that no such action should be taken.
