Mr. Boyd-Carpenter
asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury how much paper the Bureau of Current Affairs received from Government sources on or after its transfer from official control.
Mr. Glenvil Hall
One hundred and twenty thousand sheets, some partly printed with background maps, were handed over at the time of transfer on the understanding that these would be replaced.
Mr. Boyd-Carpenter
Have they been replaced?
Mr. Glenvil Hall
I am making inquiries about that, and I will let the hon. Member know as soon as I have the information.
Mr. Wyatt
Will the right hon. Gentleman assure the House that he will resist these mealy-mouthed attempts to attack the Bureau and curtail free speech?
