§ 2. Sir S. HOAREasked the President of the Board of Trade whether the Wool and Leather Control Councils were still in existence; and whether there were still in existence any other control councils of a similar character?
§ Sir A. GEDDESI understand that the Wool and Leather Councils, though still in existence, now act only in an advisory capacity to the Ministry of Munitions. The only other operating control council, of which I am aware, is the Flax Control Board.
Lieut. - Commander KEN WORTHYHay I inquire whether any consumers, other than representatives of the wool and leather trades, are on these councils?
§ Sir A. GEDDESAny question with regard to these councils should be directed to the Ministry of Munitions, in connection with which they work.
