HC Deb 18 February 1930 vol 235 c1196W
Mr. HACKING

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will extend the terms of reference of the Committee to be presided over by Sir Howard Frank so that it may be able to consider and report upon the desirability of the Department of Overseas Trade being accommodated in the same building as the Board of Trade, thereby effecting increased economy and efficiency in the working of those two Departments?

Mr. P. SNOWDEN

No, Sir. I should not consider it desirable to add to the Committee's task by referring to it questions relating to the allotment of accommodation as between Departments.
