Do I understand from that reply that the system laid down by Mr. Asquith and Mr. Lloyd George that no Cabinet Minister should have a direct or indirect influence upon contracts with the Government of which he is a part has been abandoned? If it has not been abandoned, how can the right hon. Gentleman explain that the I.T.A. has given a contract to a Cabinet Minister who holds nearly 5,000 shares in a holding company, a subsidiary of which has got one of the four contracts in London?
