HC Deb 26 February 1903 vol 118 c937
MR. WINSTON CHURCHILL

I beg to ask the right hon. Gentleman whether he will take steps to reappoint the Committee on National Expenditure appointed last session, in order that the Committee may present a report before the Chancellor of the Exchequer makes his Budget statement.

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

I shall certainly take steps to reappoint the Committee in which my hon. friend is so much interested, but whether it will be able to finish its labours before the Budget is a question which, of course, depends on the Committee.
