43. Mr. MACLEANasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether it is the intention of the Government to publish the evidence given before the May Committee?
§ Major ELLIOTI would refer the hon. Member to the answers which I gave to his supplementary questions on the 14th September.
Mr. MACLEANAre we to take it that the evidence which was given before this Committee, which has brought about the change in the circumstances of the country, is not to be published, and that the people are not to know what has led the Committee to put forward their recommendations?
§ Major ELLIOTThe question was gone into very thoroughly and the hon. Member put a number of supplementary questions upon it, and a very full answer was given.
Mr. MACLEANOn a point of Order. This particular report has led to a considerable amount of confusion and inquiry in the country. Is it not advisable, if not necessary, that the Government of the day should publish what is, after all, the report of a particular committee?
§ Mr. SPEAKERNo point of Order arises there.
