§ Mr. R. Morganasked the Minister of Information why, in preparing a film for 483W the United States of America describing a model of democratic government in rural England, he chose the Kingsbridge Rural District Council, which has recently barred the Press, on undemocratic lines, from its meetings?
§ Mr. BrackenThe film to which my hon. Friend refers was planned in May last. The incidents in it will be attributed to an imaginary place. The characters portrayed will be fictional and the treatment is intended to be entirely non-controversial. Kingsbridge was chosen as the setting because of the successful evacuation arrangements in this area which were intended to be a special feature in the original treatment.
