HC Deb 14 April 1953 vol 514 cc1-2
Sir H. Williams

Before Prayers the customary blue financial paper was not available in the Vote Office. I wonder, Mr. Speaker, if notice could be taken of this fact so that it is available for Members before the Chancellor opens his Budget?

Mr. Speaker

This is the first I have heard of it. I do not know whether any Member of the Government can shed any light on it. I notice there was always a slight delay in the past and steps taken later to remedy it.
