He arranged for a daily report to be circulated to the press, listing the sovereign's official engagements.<ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |date= |title=The Court Circular |url=https://www.royal.uk/court-circular-0 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221204192357/https://www.royal.uk/court-circular-0 |archive-date=4 December 2022 |website=royal.uk |via=Internet Archive}}</ref> Until the 1960s, the Circular as printed in ''The Times'' and elsewhere would record the movements of members of the upper levels of society even if they were not part of the royal family and were not acting on its behalf.
