§ MR. BECK (Cambridgeshire, Wisbech)I beg to ask Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will consider the advisability of giving small investors facilities for investing their savings in remunerative Colonial securities, while at the same time making it plain to them that such securities are guaranteed by Colonial Governments and not by the Home Government.
§ MR. HOBHOUSE (for Mr. LLOYD-GEORGE)The provision of such facilities appears to be a matter for the Governments which issue the securities.
§ MR. BECKBut do not small investors find great difficulties in the way of getting these securities?
§ MR. HOBHOUSEPossibly, but it is a matter for the Governments concerned.
