§ 4. Mr. WILLIAM PEARCE
asked the President of the Board of Trade whether, as no Member of the House of Commons, is appointed on the Committee on Chemical Products and information is refused as to the proceedings of the Committee, he will undertake that no Grant or subsidy shall be made without the previous sanction of the House of Commons?

Mr. ROBERTSON
I fear I can add nothing to the answer given to my hon. Friend on Tuesday last.
