asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs at what date the occupying Powers intend to hand back control of the German film industry to the Germans on a Laender governmental basis.

I am looking into this and will write to the hon. Member.

Can the right hon. Gentleman give an assurance that if it takes place, the occupying Powers will maintain an effective power of censorship?

I would like notice of questions about censorship in Germany, once the government is established. I would not like to answer off-hand, but I will look into the matter.
