HC Deb 13 February 1918 vol 103 c100W
General Sir IVOR PHILIPPS

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether the Committee about to be appointed to consider amendments of Company Law will be invited to consider the whole question of Company Law or will be limited in its reference to any particular points; and, if the latter, will he include in the reference the consideration of the wording of auditors' reports, so as to ensure that auditors shall check and certify to the accuracy of the capital issued, and the transfer of debenture stock and share and the certificates issued on account of such transfers?

Mr. WARDLE

The reference to the Committee to which my hon. and gallant Friend refers will be in wide terms, and will not be limited to particular points.
