HC Deb 21 May 1936 vol 312 c1366
63. Mr. DAY

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury the approximate cost to the State of the Commission appointed to investigate the 1936 Budget leakages?

The FINANCIAL SECRETARY to the TREASURY (Mr. W. S. Morrison)

The expenditure in connection with the Tribunal is expected to amount to a relatively small sum only. It is not possible at this stage to be more precise.

Mr. LENNOX-BOYD

Can the hon. and learned Gentleman give the House any approximate estimate of the cost to the Treasury of preparing answers to the questions asked by the hon. Member for Central Southwark (Mr. Day)?

Mr. MORRISON

I should require two or three days' notice before I could answer that question.
