HC Deb 26 February 1903 vol 118 c937
MR. SWIFT MACNEILL

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether he will lay upon the Table of the House the names of the Members of the Government who are directors of public companies, together with the names of the companies.

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

The hon. Member, I believe, has access to this information. [Mr. SWIFT MACNEILL: No.] I should like to know, then, where he got the ample materials which he produced in his speech? I cannot accede to the suggestion on the Paper.

MR. SWIFT MACNEILL

As a personal explanation I may say that I ask the right hon. Gentleman for this information because he impugned the facts which I gave in my speech.
