§ Mr. A. Edwardsasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he has con- 1096W sidered the advantages of a scheme for selling war bonds on an instalment plan?
§ Sir K. WoodWide facilities already exist for the purchase by instalments of savings certificates and Defence Bonds out of regular weekly savings, and the Post Office and trustee savings banks are available for the accumulation of sums for the purchase of National War Bonds. I do not think that any additional facilities are called for in the case of those bonds, but I will keep the matter under consideration.
