§ Mr. Lyonsasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Information whether, in view of the widespread opportunity existing for the dissemination of British news in neutral countries, he will consider making all necessary arrangements to facilitate the availability and easy purchase of all British newspapers in those countries?
§ Sir E. GriggI am glad to inform my hon. and learned Friend that arrangements are already in operation for the rapid transport by air of British newspapers to certain European neutral countries and for their sale at reasonable prices. An extension of these arrangements to cover some of the more distant countries of Europe is being pressed forward with the help of my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Air, and will, I hope, shortly be realised.
