Vol. 6 No. 38

CEISTEANNA—QUESTIONS. ORAL ANSWERS. - CENSORSHIP OF FILMS.

asked the Minister for Home Affairs if he will state how many feet of films have been submitted for censorship during the three weeks ending 29th March, 1924, and if any applications for censorship are now pending.

Mr. O'HIGGINS

There were 21,142 feet of film submitted for censorship during the three weeks ending 29th March, 1924. There are no applications for censorship now pending.

Can the Minister state why there are no applications now pending?

Mr. O'HIGGINS

I rather think there is something in the nature of a boycott.

Can the Minister say the reason for that?

Mr. O'HIGGINS

I could give the reasons at some length. I gave them, I think, about three weeks ago before.
