May I ask the hon. Gentleman whether he will take a leaf out of the War Office's book? When the firing of ordinary guns takes place on Sennybridge range, notice is given to farmers. Surely the Ministry could give notice in the local Press of these flights? The information is required for the next 12 weeks. The Ministry should know whether these flights are to take place during the third week, the fifth week, or the seventh week, and surely it could give prior notice to local authorities and to the Press?
