HC Deb 07 February 1949 vol 461 cc18-9W
96. Mr. Awbery

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will give consideration to the possibilities of establishing a special pools currency, consisting of postal orders with the word Pools superimposed or perforated on them for the purpose of obtaining a greater accuracy of accounts for prize-giving and tax purposes, the ascertainment of profits, running expenses and to prevent transfers from one account to another.

Mr. Younger

While my right hon. Friend cannot anticipate the statement to be made by my right hon. Friend the Prime Minister, this seems to be a matter which would be proper for consideration by any Committee of inquiry which His Majesty's Government may decide to appoint.
