HC Deb 15 December 1919 vol 123 c19
16. Mr. A. HENDERSON

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether his promised Bill to amend the Profiteering Act is to be introduced before the prorogation?

Sir A. GEDDES

I fear that it will not be possible to introduce the amending Bill before the prorogation, but I propose to introduce a very short measure to continue the Act for a sufficient period to enable the House fully to consider next Session the question of amendment.
