Part of the debate – in the House of Commons at on 24 July 1935.
The members of this Committee have all been selected on individual grounds to deal with a technical problem, and I do not consider that the suggested addition to the Committee is necessary. I hope that the organisations in question will assist the Committee by tendering evidence. I would add that officers' experience is represented on the Committee by Captain Thomas, who has much practical knowledge of the type of gear in question and is also experienced in North Atlantic voyages.
