77. Sir W. Smithers

asked the Minister of Supply if he will set up an independent committee of businessmen, presided over by a prominent Queen's Counsel, to inquire into allegations of waste and extravagance at Fort Halstead, particulars of which have been sent him.

Mr. Sandys

If my hon. Friend will let me have specific examples to support the general allegations made in his letters of 31st October and 15th November, I shall be glad to inquire into them.
