§ MR. BOWLES (Lambeth, Norwood)To ask Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer 721 whether, in view of the fact that the Department of Public Trustee receives a proportion of the commission charged on dealings in investments belonging to its trusts and so, though a trustee, has a direct pecuniary interest in recommending such dealings, he will take steps to ensure that any recommendation of such dealings made by the Public Trustee in future shall be accompanied by a clear intimation to all the persons concerned that the department will derive a pecuniary benefit from the acceptance of its advice.
(Answered by Mr. Lloyd-George.) I see no reason for adopting such a course.
