§ 35. Sir C. Osborneasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer when he proposes to revive the Capital Issues Committee in order to curtail the expansion of credit by exercising a direct control of industrial investment; what other proposals he is considering to achieve this aim; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. CallaghanThe Capital Issues Committee is still in existence, but I am not at present contemplating its use to control domestic borrowing as I hope that the measures which I have already taken will prove effective without impeding productive investment.
