Captain TUDOR REES (by Private Notice)asked the Prime Minister whether it is not the fact that the delay in filling the Office of Minister of Food involves the postponement of important Orders now awaiting signature, and whether he can state the reason for such delay, and when and by whom the Office will be filled?
§ Mr. BONAR LAWNo such serious inconvenience as is suggested in the question has so far arisen, but I hope to be able to announce the appointment very shortly.
