HC Deb 12 July 1920 vol 131 cc1982-3W
Mr. NEWBOULD

asked the President of the Board of Trade when the Sub-Committee which are investigating the cost of building materials are expected to report?

Sir R. HORNE

Three of the four Sectional Committees appointed by the Central Committee under the Profiteering Act to investigate building materials are at present engaged in the preparation of their draft Reports, and I hope for their Reports shortly. The fourth Committee, which is investigating cement and mortar, has not yet completed its investigations.
