HC Deb 02 August 1957 vol 574 c295W
Sir A. Bossom

asked the Prime Minister if he will consult with the Ministers responsible for the nationalised industries with a view to preparing legislation for introduction in the next Session of Parliament to enable Members of Parliament to control more adequately their expenditure, in order to prevent waste.

The Prime Minister

No. While these problems are always before us, I doubt whether legislation is appropriate or necessary.
