§ 34. Captain FULLERasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in view of the fact that the Macmillan Committee examined monetary policy only on the basis of the gold standard and that no alternative was examined or discussed, he will consider the desirability of appointing a committee to examine and report on alternatives to the present monetary system?
§ Mr. HORE-BELISHAThese questions are under constant consideration by His Majesty's Government both from their national and international aspects, but my right hon. Friend does not feel that any useful purpose would be served by setting up another committee on the matter.
