§ 45. Mr. Jannerasked the Prime Minister if he can yet state the names of the committee set up to examine the present arrangements for the administration of Crown Lands.
§ The Prime MinisterI am not yet in a position to make a statement on this subject. One name remains to be selected and when this has been settled, letters of invitation will have to be sent out and acceptances received from all of the five proposed members. We shall go on as quickly as possible.
§ Lieut.-Colonel LiptonIs the Prime Minister aware that there has been a not unsubstantial addition to Crown Lands as a result of a recent High Court judgment which transfers a lot of Brady slums to the Crown, and that that makes it all the more important to get this administration in full working order as quickly as possible, so that the properties can now be properly administered by their new owner, the Crown?
