§ 60. Sir WALTER de FRECEasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the names of the expert Commissioners who are to inquire into the best way of dealing with the burden of the National Debt?
§ Mr. SNOWDENI regret that I am not yet in a position to announce the names. The constitution of the Committee is nearly complete, but as I explained previously, there has been an unavoidable delay in getting into touch with some of the persons I have invited to serve.
§ Mr. BECKERWill this Committee consider the Capital Levy as a means of reducing debt?
§ Mr. SNOWDENThe terms of reference to the Committee have already been announced in this House, and if they have escaped the observation of the hon. Member I shall be glad to send him a copy.
