§ Mr. Pavittasked the Minister of Health how many times he has met the Joint Censorship Committee of the Poster Advertising Industry on its refusal to display posters published by his Department in pursuance of the policy of Her Majesty's Government; and if the ban still persists.
§ Mr. BarberThere was correspondence and one meeting between officers of my Department and representatives of the Committee about a year ago. I have no reason to think that the Committee's views on posters with the slogan "Cigarettes Cause Lung Cancer" have since changed. I understand that it has accepted posters with other slogans. None of the posters was designed for display on commercial sites, and they have all been widely displayed elsewhere.
