§ Mr. Arthur Lewisasked the Prime Minister whether, in view of his public declaration of the advantages of banking with the Co-operative Bank, he will advise all Ministers to circulate the various public authorities falling within their ministerial control to bank with the Co-operative Bank.
§ Mr. Denzil DaviesI have been asked to reply.
No. The question at which banks a public authority should keep its accounts is a matter for the authority itself to decide.
