asked the Under-Secretary of State for Air the total cost of the Royal Air Force displays at Hendon for the years 1929, 1930, 1931 and 1932, respectively; and whether he will consider the discontinuance of such displays, in view of the appeals for economy advocated by His Majesty's Government in all State Department?
Secretary of State was originally the title given to the two officials who conducted the Royal Correspondence under Elizabeth I. Now it is the title held by some of the more important Government Ministers, for example the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.
