HC Deb 05 March 1919 vol 113 cc434-5W
Major HAYWARD

asked the Home Secretary whether, for the information and convenience of Members, he will have prepared and issued a Memorandum setting out the powers and duties proposed to be transferred to the Minister of Ways and Communications by the Ministry of Ways and Communications Bill?

Sir H. GREENWOOD

A general statement setting forth the main powers and duties proposed to be transferred is in course of preparation, and will be issued at an early date. I am informed that, owing to the large number of private and other Acts involved, it would be impracticable to supply a statement in minute detail.
