§ Mr. HAROLD SMITHasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether none of the Sinking Fund has been invested this quarter; and whether, as a result, there is a sum of £3,500,000 yet to invest within the next three weeks?
§ Mr. LLOYD GEORGEIssues on account of the New Sinking Fund (to which I presume the hon. Member refers) have been made regularly throughout the current quarter. The balance will be issued before 31st March.
