§ Brigadier Clarkeasked the President of the Board of Trade if he will now say when he proposes to introduce a Weights and Measures Bill, in view of the fact that the necessary legislation is long overdue.
§ Sir D. EcclesThe preparation of this Bill is proceeding, but it cannot be completed until the result of a social survey on certain aspects of the subject are available. I expect to receive this report this summer. Thereafter, the Bill will be introduced as soon as Parliamentary time permits.
