HC Deb 19 November 1908 vol 196 cc1429-30
MR. FELL

I beg to ask the Prime Minister if he will give an opportunity at an early date for the discussion of the Memorandum by Professor Marshall on the fiscal question, just published by the Treasury.

MR. ASQUITH

The Answer is in the negative.

MR. FELL

May I ask with what object this manifesto was published if it is not to be discussed?

MR. ASQUITH

I think it was presented to Parliament in compliance with a pledge given by the Chancellor of the Exchequer a long time ago.
