HC Deb 02 April 1930 vol 237 c1272
47. Mr. LOVAT-FRASER

asked the Prime Minister if he will consider the desirability of introducing legislation to place the Scottish Department of the Office of Works under the control of the Secretary of State for Scotland?

Mr. P. SNOWDEN

Before any such change as that suggested in my hon. Friend's question is considered, it would appear to be desirable to await the result of any inquiry into Scottish Administration which may be held on the lines of the statement which the Prime Minister made during the Debate on the Address in July last. His observations on the subject of such an inquiry will be found in the OFFICIAL REPORT of 10th July, 1929, columns 931–934.
