§ Mr. J. N. BrowneNo, Sir. I cannot at this stage add anything to what was said in the Most Gracious Speech.
§ Mr. McInnesDoes this Committee comprise the same personnel as considered the housing subsidies and rents? if so, I can assure the hon. Member that the Committee is quite capable of producing evidence suitable for the Government's policy.
