HC Deb 30 January 1929 vol 224 cc961-2W
Mr. T. WILLIAMS

asked the Attorney-General if he is aware that the agreement in the case of the Attorney-General v. Whitfield of 4th October, 1927, has never been carried out; that of the sum of money involved more than three-fifths was used for purposes entirely alien to the agreement and the remaining two-fifths was disbursed without regard to the before-mentioned agreement; and will he call for a detailed statement and ensure that such agreements cannot be wilfully ignored?

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL

I would direct the hon. Member's attention to the reply which I gave to a similar question on 19th December last, in which I stated that I had received an assurance that the money involved was being applied in accordance with the terms of settlement. I would add that I have no reason to doubt the accuracy of this statement.
