4. Major BARNESasked the President of the Board of Trade if his attention has been drawn to the financial position of British Dyes, Limited; if any proposals have been made to the Government in respect of its holding in the company; and, if so, what are they?
§ Mr. BALDWINThe answer to the first part of the question is in the affirmative; to the second part it is in the negative, and the third part consequently does not arise.
Major BARNESWill the President of the Board of Trade say whether, in the event of proposals being made to the Government, the House will have a chance of considering them before it is decided what course of action shall be taken?
§ Mr. BALDWINI should like to see exactly what locus standi the House has in the matter.
