HC Deb 10 January 1918 vol 101 c311
60. Mr. PETO

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether among the forms of wealth that are to be subject to conscription goods manufactured to the order of the Government are included; and, if not, why manufacturers whose businesses are controlled find it impossible to get payment for their deliveries?

Mr. BONAR LAW

If my hon. Friend will be good enough to furnish me with particulars of any case in which it is alleged that undue delay by Government Departments in making payments has occurred, I shall have inquiry made.
