§ Mr. FORESTIER-WALKERasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Munitions if a large sum is due to Messrs. George L. Morgan, Limited, of Hereford, for commission for wool dealt with by them; if he is aware that the Department decline to pay the 20 per cent. given to Welsh merchants during the past year; and why Messrs. Morgan are not to be paid as border merchants, seeing that they have done the work?
§ Mr. KELLAWAYThe cause of the delay in effecting a settlement in this case has been the refusal of Messrs. G. E. Morgan, Limited, to render their commission account in accordance with their agreement. With regard to the second portion of the question, Messrs. Morgan were not recognised as Welsh merchants by the Department. With regard to the last part of the question, it has already been decided to pay the balance of the commission due to this firm in accordance with their agreement, and this payment has now been made to them.
