HC Deb 21 April 1936 vol 311 c26
52. Sir NICHOLAS GRATTAN - DOYLE

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will request the committee on oversea issues to consider the position of United Kingdom holders of Canadian provincial government and municipal loans floated in London, with a view to restricting future issues of such loans in London to those guaranteed, both as to principal and interests, by the Canadian Dominion Government.

Mr. W. S. MORRISON

I do not think it is advisable to adopt my hon. Friend's suggestion.

53. Mr. LIDDALL

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will consider amending the Colonial Stock Acts, 1900 to 1934, for the purpose of refusing inclusion in the trustee list of securities of any further London issues of loans of any dominion or colony whose provincial government or municipal loans are in default?

Mr. W. S. MORRISON

The answer is in the negative.
