HC Deb 26 May 1932 vol 266 c540
64. Mr. LEONARD

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether the committee appointed to inquire into the present position of co-operative societies in relation to Income Tax will meet in public or in private?

Major ELLIOT

This is a matter for the committee itself to decide.

Mr. LEONARD

Will the Financial Secretary consider the desirability of giving power under the Tribunals of Inquiry (Evidence) Act or any other special powers?

Major ELLIOT

I should have certainly liked to see that suggestion put down in writing.

Mr. McGOVERN

Will the right hon. and gallant Gentleman consider allowing this committee to broadcast through the talkies?
