HC Deb 30 July 1936 vol 315 cc1737-8W
Mr. LIDDALL

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether his attention has been drawn to the decision in the case of Bulmer's Trustees v. Greaves in the Bradford County Court on 23rd July; and whether he is prepared to introduce an amendment to the Companies Act prohibiting a bank from selling shares deposited with it as security without first giving sufficient and proper notice to the depositor?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

My attention has been drawn to the case referred to by my hon. Friend. I am advised that the matter is not one affecting Company Law.
