HC Deb 05 August 1924 vol 176 c2775W
Mr. MACLEAN

asked the President of the Board of Trade how many members of the Committee which he has appointed to inquire into the conditions and prospects of British trade have had the practical experience of working-class life that will enable them to represent the workers' point of view in such an investigation?

Mr. WEBB

I should prefer not to attempt to discriminate between the special experience and points of view of the various members of the Committee on Industry and Trade, all of whom will, I am confident, work together for the common good. But my hon. Friend may rest assured that the wage earner's point of view will be well represented and fully considered.
