§ Mr. FOREMANasked the President of the Board of Trade if he can expedite the findings of the Committee which he has appointed under the Profiteering Act to investigate the increase in the cost of building material, since the problem is one which is hampering housing construction?
§ Mr. BRIDGEMANI fully appreciate the urgency for the publication of the Reports referred to in the question, and am doing everything in my power to expedite the issue of the Reports. As stated in the answer to the hon. Member for West Leyton (Mr. Newbould) on Monday, three of the four Sectional Committees appointed to investigate building materials are engaged in the preparation of their draft Reports.
