§ MR. LOUIS SINCLAIR (Essex, Romford)I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury if he will state what form the Government inquiry to be instituted with a view of rearranging the duties and functions of existing Departments of the Board of Trade and other offices will take.
§ *THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER (Mr. RITCHIE, Croydon)The inquiry will be in the nature of a Departmental inquiry—that is to say, an inquiry instituted by the Treasury, but not necessarily conducted by officials.
