CON

Richard Bedford Bennett (Leader of the Official Opposition)

Conservative (1867-1942)

Right Hon. R. B. BENNETT (Leader of the Opposition):

Mr. Speaker, I gathered

from what the Minister of Finance (Mr. Dunning) said the other day that he would make inquiry as to whether the Auditor General's report should not as a matter of course be referred to the committee on public accounts. This question arises out of this motion.

Hon. CHARLES A. DUNNING (Minister of Finance): I have looked into the procedure of recent years and I find that in most cases since 1931 the Auditor General's report has been tabled by the Minister of Finance shortly after the opening of the session and that a subsequent motion has been made to refer the report to the appropriate committee after the setting up of the committees. I intend to make such a motion one of these days.
