§ 52. Mr. A. V. ALEXANDERasked the Prime Minister whether he has yet received any Report from Lord Colwyn's Committee on National Debt and Taxation; 2120 and, if so, what arrangements, if any, are being made for its publication?
§ The PRIME MINISTERThe answer to the first part of the question is in the negative; the second part, therefore, does not arise.
§ Mr. ALEXANDERMay I ask whether, in view of the very serious financial position, we ought not to have the Report of this Committee before the Budget?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI should be very glad if we could get it. They are doing their best.
§ Sir FREDRIC WISEWhen the Report is published, will it be available to Members of Parliament?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI should like notice of that question.
