HC Deb 26 February 1903 vol 118 cc936-7
MR. SWIFT MACNEILL

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether, in view of Mr. Attorney General's decision not to direct a prosecution in respect of the alleged fraud connected with the London and Globe Finance Corporation, he will agree to a Motion for a Select Committee to inquire into the circumstances.

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

The hon. Member must be aware that that is a request which cannot possibly be acceded to.
