HC Deb 14 July 1914 vol 64 c1724W
Captain WARING

asked the Secretary for Scotland whether, in the selection of persons to serve on committees of inquiry in Scotland, he will in future make a rule requiring from each a declaration that he has no pecuniary interest in the matter to be investigated in order to ensure that each member will act in the examination of witnesses as a judge on the merits of the case and not as a counsel in defence of a vested interest?

Mr. McKINNON WOOD

I would refer my hon. and gallant Friend to the reply which I gave to his question on the 31st March.
