§ Mr. Maddenasked the Secretary of State for Defence what instructions he has issued to the meteorological office 455W at Bracknell regarding the withholding of information about temperatures; when the instructions were issued; and if he will place a copy of the instructions in the Library.
§ Mr. Archie HamiltonNo instructions have been issued to the meteorological office regarding the withholding of temperature or any other meteorological data.
