HC Deb 02 July 1940 vol 362 cc694-5W
Sir R. Gower

asked the Minister of Information whether, in view of the fact that many persons are encouraged to listen-in to German propaganda broadcasts because of the practice of including therein occasional lists of British prisoners in Germany, he will take steps to have these lists made available either in the Press or in local post offices so as to remove the incentive?

Mr. Cooper

As stated in the answer which I gave to the hon. Member for East Wolverhampton (Mr. Mander) on 13th June, arrangements to this end have been made and lists of the names of British prisoners broadcast by the Germans are now being published regularly in the Press.
