HC Deb 07 May 1928 vol 217 cc43-4W
Mr. DAY

asked the President of the Board of Trade the number of companies registered under the Companies Consolidation Act, 1908, and the preceding Acts, showing their nominal capital for the 12 months ended to the last convenient date?

Mr. H. WILLIAMS

The latest information compiled on this subject is contained in the 36th General Annual Report by the Board of Trade laid before both Houses of Parliament under Section 283 of the Companies (Consolidation) Act, 1908. I would, in particular, refer the hon. Member to the statement appearing in Annexes Nos. V and VI of that Report.
