Sir J. BUTCHER

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware that the Special Advisory Committee which was appointed in November last to deal with doubtful cases which arise in the administration of war risks compensation scheme does not include any representative of the seafaring profession; and whether, in order to strengthen this Committee, he will take steps to place on it suitable representatives of that profession?

Mr. BALDWIN

If the hon. and learned Member will refer again to the list of the Committee, he will see that it includes an eminent member of the seafaring profession in Sir Acton Blake, the Deputy Master of Trinity House.
