HC Deb 31 July 1919 vol 118 c2278
69. Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he can make a statement as to the policy which he proposes to follow with regard to the remainder of the floating debt?

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER (Mr. Chamberlain)

I do not think I can usefully make any statement on this subject at the moment.

Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY

Will it be available for the House before the Recess, and will some statement be made on this urgent matter of public importance?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

Certainly not. I do not think it is a matter which I could be expected to decide in the course of the next few days.
