§ 10. Sir J. D. REESasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he is aware of the dissatisfaction which exists in business circles regarding the constitution and procedure of the Treasury Committee on New Issues; and whether he proposes to increase the size of the Committee so as to include members having special knowledge of finance and company law and procedure, with the needs of the present situation, and with the capital requirements of the commercial world?
§ Mr. McKENNAAs regards the first part of the question, I may refer my hon. Friend to answers which I have already given on this subject and of which I am sending him copies. As at present advised, I see no sufficient reason for increasing the size or altering the constitution of the Committee.
