Announcements

HC Deb 26 April 1965 vol 711 c13W

asked the Minister of Aviation what is his present practice in deciding whether to make announcements in the House or by other means.

Mr. Roy Jenkins

Each case is decided on its merits, but where possible it is my practice to make all the more important announcements in the House.
