HC Deb 24 February 1936 vol 309 c24
35. Mr. R. C. MORRISON

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether he has yet received the report of the Committee of Investigation with regard to the contract prices for milk for 1935–36; and whether it is proposed to make the report available to Members of the House of Commons?

Mr. ELLIOT

The Report of the Committee of Investigation referred to has not yet been received. It has been the practice to publish findings but not reports of the Committee of Investigation, and I am not in a position to say at this stage to what extent, if any, this practice will be varied in this instance.

Mr. MORRISON

In view of the importance of this matter, would the right hon. Gentleman give his consideration to the whole question?

Mr. ELLIOT

I will keep an open mind on the subject.
