§ Sir T. Mooreasked the Secretary of State for War whether, in the case of British military operations, there are any official photographers attached to the operating forces who send photographs home for publication; whether he is aware of the complaints in America of the way in which Britain has handled news and 1598W photographs of the war in the Middle East; and whether he will rectify the matter?
§ Mr. LawTwelve official still photographers and six official cine-cameramen are attached to British and Dominion forces in the Middle East. In addition, six newsreel cameramen are accredited to the Middle East Command. I am aware that complaints have been made of delay in the transit of photographs from the Middle East. The question has, however, been taken up with the Departments concerned, and I understand that the position has recently been much improved.
