§ 51. Mr. Errollasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer why the Ultimus Haeres Account was presented in dummy on 31st May, 1949, when the full accounts were only available on 22nd July, 1949.
§ The Chancellor of the Exchequer designate (Mr. Gaitskell)I would refer the hon. Member to the answer given by my hon. Friend the Financial Secretary to his question on the Crown's Nominee Account on 19th October. The same circumstances applied in the case of the Ultimus Haeres Account in 1949. The hon. Member will, however, have observed that this year the Ultimus Haeres Account was not laid in dummy and the full accounts were presented on the 27th June, 1950.
§ Mr. ErrollCan the Minister say, now that it is half-past three, whether the same answer applies to Question No. 52?
