§ 46. Mr. Dempseyasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will take steps to ensure that a Scottish bank note is accepted as tender by commercial interests in the south of England; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. Patrick JenkinNo. I do not think it would be right to require by law the acceptance of a variety of bank notes by people who may find them difficult to recognise. Scottish bank notes are in 313W practice accepted in English banks and by many commercial concerns in England.
