HC Deb 09 April 1957 vol 568 c953
38. Mr. Grimond

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what further consideration he has given to the appointment of a committee or a Royal Commission to inquire into our financial system and economic machinery in general.

Mr. Birch

I would ask the hon. Member to await my right hon. Friend's Budget statement.

Mr. Grimond

In thanking the right hon. Gentleman, may I say that I accept that Answer, which I consider most encouraging? I have no doubt that the statement, which I take it he has announced will be made, will be extremely acceptable to all parties in the House.
