HC Deb 08 March 1923 vol 161 c725
81. Mr. LEACH

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, seeing that the protected goods in the case of execution warrants against small debtors are still limited to £5 in value, notwithstanding the great increase in prices since the figure was fixed, he will take measures to secure an adequate adjustment of the amount?

Mr. BRIDGEMAN

I have been asked to reply. My attention had not been called to this matter, and if the hon. Member has any evidence of hardship, I. shall be glad if he would bring it to my notice.
