§ 42. Mr. T. HENDERSONasked the Minister of Health whether his attention has been called to the existence of a ring of steel-erecting firms which has led to serious increases in quotations for the erection of steel frame-work of housing flats and other buildings that it is impossible to get an erector to quote from outside the ring because British makers 2229 stop home supplies; and whether he will take the necessary action to protect the interests of users of steel for these purposes?
§ Sir K. WOODI am making inquiries into the matter.
