§ Mr. Stokesasked the Secretary of State for Air whether he will consider decentralising the control of air raid warnings so as to make them more closely conform to what is actually happening in each district and thereby automatically minimising waste of time and the spreading of unnecessary alarm?
Captain BalfourThe possibility of decentralising the control of air raid warnings has recently been examined and certain experiments are being undertaken with a view to deciding whether and if so to what extent the present arrangements can be modified.
