§ Mr. MORLEYasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will consider the appointment, in the near future, of a representative committee to inquire into the financial policy of the country?
Mr. SNOWDENIf my hon. Friend refers to the maintenance of the gold standard, I have no intention of calling it in question. But if he is asking me to consider an inquiry into possible im- 61W provements in our existing system of banking and credit, I may say that this matter is under consideration, though I am not at the moment in a position to make a statement upon it.
