HC Deb 30 June 1931 vol 254 cc1045-6
45. Sir A. POWNALL (for Sir A. STEEL-MAITLAND)

asked the Prime Minister whether he will arrange that the Lord Privy Seal should answer questions at an early stage during question time on one day of the week, in order that Members wishing for information on questions of unemployment shall be sure of obtaining answers.

The PRIME MINISTER (Mr. Ramsay MacDonald)

All questions properly addressed to and answered by the Lord Privy Seal during the last three months have been reached, and I do not, therefore, think that any special arrangements are called for. I would remind the right hon. Gentleman that only questions relating to general unemployment policy and affecting a number of Departments should be addressed to the Lord Privy Seal.

Captain CROOKSHANK

Is the right hon. Gentleman satisfied with the way the Lord Privy Seal is doing the job?

The PRIME MINISTER

Perfectly.
