HC Deb 10 December 1919 vol 122 cc1325-6
74. Mr. RAPER

asked the Secretary of State for War if he will now appoint a small but permanent committee, composed of two or three hon. Members of this House and two or three gentlemen outside the House who have a knowledge of commercial organisation, to assist the Air Ministry authorities in finance and business matters generally?

Captain GUEST

I have nothing to add to the answers which I have already given to my hon. Friend in reply to similar questions on the 31st March and 3rd April last.

Mr. RAPER

Is it not a fact that the last answer given was that this question was under discussion?

Captain GUEST

Yes, Sir; and it is still under consideration.
