HC Deb 01 December 1908 vol 197 c1257
MR. WATT (Glasgow, College)

I beg to ask the President of the Board of Trade if he will state how often the Committee on Meat Trusts has met up to this date; and when he expects to receive the Report.

THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF TRADE (Mr. CHURCHILL,) Dundee

I am informed that the Departmental Committee on Combinations in the Meat Trade has held eleven meetings for the taking of evidence. I understand that it is not possible at present to state when the Committee's Report will be received.
