§ 61. Mr. Boyd-Carpenterasked the Minister of Land and Natural Resources whether, in view of the fact that the replies sent by his Department to individual inquirers, as to the likely effect of the Land Commission Bill on transactions taking place before and after the proposed Appointed Days under that measure, relate in many cases to matters akin to taxation and may be of commercial value to the recipients, he will publish in an appropriate form the general purport and effect of these replies.
§ Mr. WilleyNo. Most of the inquiries sought clarification of the White Paper's intentions pending publication of the Bill, and the answers are generally to be found in the Bill itself. My Department has tried to be as helpful as possible in all cases, and I know of none where an inquirer has been given any unfair commercial advantage. If the right hon. Gentleman has any such case in mind I hope he will let me know of it.
