§ The FINANCIAL SECRETARY to the TREASURY (Major Elliot)I will answer these questions together. I would 847 refer the hon. Members to the reply given yesterday to the hon. Member for East Dorset (Mr. Hall-Caine).
Captain CAZALETIf I put down a similar question in a week's time, will the hon. and gallant Gentleman be able to give a more satisfactory answer?
