§ Major Lyonsasked the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware of the steps taken by the Price Regulation Committee for the North Midlands region to co-operate with all local authorities, trades councils and citizens' advice committees throughout the region to receive and deal with all complaints of speculation, profiteering and black-marketing and to assist in the enforcement of recent orders; and whether he will circularise other regional committees to suggest examination of these steps, with a view to a nation-wide drive against this form of traffic in goods?
§ Sir A. DuncanYes, Sir. At the suggestion of the chairman of the Central Price Regulation Committee several of the local price regulation committees have already made somewhat similar arrangements. I am however arranging for the attention of all the local committees to be drawn to this matter again.
