Part of the debate – in the House of Commons at on 24 June 1936.
In view of the reply which the Minister has just made, may I point out to him that the scheme which is being quoted by the hon. Gentleman must cause some uneasiness to the Members of the House. Is it not the case that such a scheme would be approved by the Minister himself—that he will decide whether it shall be approved or not? In that case, what provision will be made so that Members of the House of Commons shall have a say in the question of the ultimate scheme?
