HC Deb 05 March 1930 vol 236 cc424-5
46. Sir K. WOOD

asked the Prime Minister whether he proposes to give facilities this Session for the Bill to set up the Consumers' Council with suitable powers?

Mr. P. SNOWDEN

It is hoped to introduce legislation on this subject during the present Session, but it is not yet possible to say definitely whether time can be found for it.

Sir K. WOOD

Does the right hon. Gentleman or the Prime Minister propose, at a later stage, to indicate what Bills will be dealt with this Session?

An HON. MEMBER

All of them.

Mr. SNOWDEN

I do not think that we can do that at this stage. We hope that we shall be able to get through a considerable part of our programme and in that I am sure we can always rely upon the assistance of the right hon. Gentleman.

Sir K. WOOD

Is the Chancellor of the Exchequer keeping a special eye on the Trade Disputes Bill?
