HC Deb 25 July 1939 vol 350 c1275W
Mr. Bellenger

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he has acceded to the request of the statutory percentage of shareholders in the Great Boulder Proprietary Gold Mines, Limited, for the appointment of an inspector to investigate the affairs of this company: and whether he is appointing an inspector to inquire into the affairs of the other companies in the Bernales group?

Mr. Stanley

The answer to both parts of the question is in the affirmative. I have appointed Sir William McLintock of Messrs. Thomson, McLintock and Company, to act as inspector under Section 135 of the Companies Act, 1929, in the case of all the companies in question.
