asked the First Commissioner of Works whether he has considered the desirability of placing a wireless set in some convenient room in the House so that Members may not continue to be at a disadvantage in the receipt of current news of national or international importance available to the general public?

Yes, Sir. But I find on inquiry that there is no considerable support for the hon. Member's suggestion in any section of the House.

Does the right hon. Gentleman not consider that a wireless set of this character could be used with great advantage for the large number of Government supporters who are continually absent from this House, although within the precincts of the House?
