HC Deb 02 December 1930 vol 245 cc1977-8
47. Mr. MANDER

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will consider the advisability of introducing legisation to amend the Trustee Act, 1925, and the Colonial Stock Act, 1900?

Mr. P. SNOWDEN

The answer is in the negative. I would refer the hon. Member to the reply which I gave on this matter to the hon. Member for Farnham (Mr. A. M. Samuel) on the 11th November.

Mr. MANDER

Is not the right hon. Gentleman aware that there is an overwhelming case for the revision of the Trustee Act, and will he not give it further consideration?

Mr. SNOWDEN

I am not aware that there is an overwhelming case for revision.
