asked the Under-Secretary of State for Air if any report has yet been received from the Italian Government about the loss of the seaplane "City of Rome"?

Yes, Sir; a report has been received from the Italian Air Ministry, but it relates mainly to the working of that department's organisation on the Naples-Genoa route. I am afraid that nothing material can be added to the reply which I gave my hon. Friend on 27th November.

In previous replies the hon. Gentleman informed us that the Italian Government had not sent a report; what steps has the Minister taken with a view to getting it?

I have already told the hon. Gentleman that a report has been received from the Italian Government.
