Major BARINGasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what is the position of builders in reference to contracts entered into before the War; if, in view of the increased cost of material, they are bound to complete the work at a figure fixed before war was contemplated; and whether the moratorium in any way affects their position?
§ Mr. LLOYD GEORGEThe moratorium in no way affects the contracts referred to except so far as it postpones any payment due thereunder.
