§ Captain CLIVEasked whether the Government are themselves now manufacturing acetone, or whether they intend to resume the manufacture of it?
§ Colonel SEELYI would refer the hon. and gallant Gentleman to the reply to a question on this subject put by the hon. Gentleman the Member for the South Division of Wiltshire on the 25th March.
§ Captain CLIVEMay I ask the right hon. Gentleman to give the reasons for the change of policy involved in this, seeing that as late as November, 1910, the War Office was selling plant for the manufacture of acetone?
§ Colonel SEELYIf the hon. and gallant Gentleman will refer to the answer I gave on 25th March, I think he will see that it covers the question he now asks.
