HC Deb 14 May 1900 vol 83 c43
MR. LABOUCHERE (Northampton)

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether any legislation is contemplated in order to render liable as trustees, bankers, brokers, and solicitors, in respect of moneys and securities placed in their hands by their clients.

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

The subject has been brought into unpleasant prominence lately, and though the Government have no proposals before them on the subject, I think it is one that ought to be taken into serious consideration.
