Richard Burpee Hanson (Leader of the Official Opposition)

National Government

Mr. HANSON (York-Sunbury):

There has been no motion for concurrence in this report and possibly there will be none. Will the Prime Minister (Mr. Mackenzie King) say if the recommendation as to the consolidation of the regulations will be considered by the government? I think it would be most convenient to have this done as soon as possible.

Mr. GARDINER:

This question, and questions by Mr. Adamson and Mr. Pinard
