Mr. De la Bèreasked the Secretary of State for Air whether, in view of the loss of man-hours and general public inconvenience caused by fog, he can state the names of the societies and institutions who are engaged in research work to discover an antidote to this affliction; and what steps the Government are taking to encourage them to develop their researches.
§ Sir A. SinclairA great deal of research and experiment has been carried out on this subject, much of which has an important bearing upon military operations. I regret, therefore, that I cannot at present give the information requested.
