HC Deb 20 January 1942 vol 377 c226W
Mr. Groves

asked the Home Secretary what steps are taken to hold Press conferences at the Ministry, so that the public may be kept informed of the various measures for their welfare, in which they will have to co-operate in case of invasion?

Mr. H. Morrison

Instruction and advice to the public about their conduct in invasion was embodied in the Government's leaflet "Beating the Invader" circulated to every household in the country last summer. Should there be any occasion for modifications of those aspects of this policy for which the Ministry of Home Security is responsible, every appropriate means, including Press conferences, would be adopted to bring them to the notice of the public.
