HC Deb 01 May 1923 vol 163 c1146
6. Mr. GRAHAM WHITE

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether having regard to the recommendations of the interim Report of the Committee on Distribution and Prices of Agricultural Produce with reference to the United Dairies Company, he is now prepared to introduce legislation to require all companies to file at Somerset House, and publish with their annual balance-sheets, returns giving full information with regard to costs and profits?

Viscount WOLMER

I am not prepared to introduce legislation on lines suggested by the hon. Member at present. The matter is under consideration.

Mr. WHITE

Will that consideration apply to all trusts, especially to the Light Castings Association?

Viscount WOLMER

I think that that hardly arises out of the question.
