Part of the debate – in the House of Commons at 12:00 am on 7 August 1947.
There are still some points which require investigation before I shall be in a position to make a statement on the Committee's recommendation for financial assistance from public funds to voluntary bodies engaged in marriage guidance work but my hon. Friends can rest assured that there will be no unnecessary delay in reaching a decision. As regards the other recommendations of the Committee I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply given to the hon. Member for Merioneth (Mr. Emrys Roberts) on 19th June.
