Lieut.-Colonel HENDERSONasked the Financial Secretary of the Treasury when he expects the Report from the Committee appointed by the Treasury of 1923, of which the honourable and gallant Member for Burton (Col. Gretton) is chairman, to examine the working of the Stationery Office; and what is the total cost of this Committee to date, including the taking of evidence, printing, stationery, and travelling expenses, and the date when the Committee last met?
§ Mr. McNEILLI am informed that the draft report is almost finished, and the Chairman is hopeful that the Committee will be meeting very shortly to discuss it. The present emergency may, of course, delay matters. The total cost of the Committee to date, including the taking of evidence, printing, stationery, and travelling expenses, amounts to £991. The Committee last met on the 30th July, 1925.
