HC Deb 11 February 1948 vol 447 c369
35. Mr. Bossom

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Civil Aviation if he can state the total value of the nation's property now controlled under the direction of the three civil aviation Corporations.

Mr. Lindgren

The value of the Corporations properties as at 3rst March, 1947, was disclosed in the balance sheets recently published.

Mr. Bossom

Could the Minister answer whether, if Questions are put down by Members of this House about expenses and property, he will be able to answer them?

Mr. Lindgren

All the figures are given in the balance sheets as published, and these balance sheets are in much greater detail than those ever given by any private undertaking.

Mr. Bossom

May I have an answer to my Question? Will the Minister answer Questions about these Corporations in this House?

Mr. Lindgren

Before I answer any Question, I should like to see it on the Order Paper.
