HC Deb 13 June 1907 vol 175 c1596
MR. ELLIS DAVIES (Carnarvonshire, Eifion)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury whether a meeting of the Land Tax Commissioners for South Carnarvonshire, Pwllheli District, has been called; if so, why none of the recently appointed Commissioners received notice of the meeting; and, if the meeting did take place under the circumstances related, whether it is proposed to call another meeting to do the work entrusted to the Commissioners as a body.

MR. RUNCIMAN

I understand that the clerk to the Commissioners was unaware of his duties under the Act. A notification of them, which was sent to him as to all other clerks to Land Tax Commissioners, apparently failed to reach him, but this regrettable accident has now been rectified, and I have little doubt that the provisions of the Act will be complied with in future The last part of the Question is a matter for the decision of the Land Tax Commissioners themselves.
