HC Deb 19 January 1943 vol 386 c90W
Mr. Parker

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what steps he has taken to impress on registrars and other registry authorities the possible economy to be effected by insisting on dividend instructions being given on transfers?

Sir K. Wood

As I informed my hon. Friend on 24th November last, there are technical reasons which make it impossible to adopt this proposal in cases of transfer of stocks and shares.
