HC Deb 06 July 1943 vol 390 cc1913-4
4. Mr. W. Brown

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is now in a position to inform the House of his decisions on the recommendations of the Cozens-Hardy Committee?

Mr. Henderson

The Report of the Cozens-Hardy Committee covers a wide field, and the Departmental examination is not yet complete. In the circumstances it would be premature for me to make any statement at the present stage.

Mr. Brown

When does the hon. and learned Gentleman expect that the examination will be completed?

Mr. Henderson

As the hon. Member knows, certain discussions are taking place, and it will have to wait until the termination of those discussions.
