§ Mr. BOTTOMLEYasked the President of the Board of Trade, whether he will consider the question of introducing legislation to compel gas and water companies to disclose the amount of unclaimed deposits in their possession?
Mr. BUXTONI am not proposing, at present, to introduce any legislation dealing with gas and water companies. I have not at present any information before me that would lead me to think that legislation is required for the object stated in the question. As I stated, in reply, just now, if my hon. Friend gives me any particulars I shall be glad to consider them.
§ Mr. BOTTOMLEYI will do so.
