Alfred Duranleau (Minister of Marine)
Conservative (1867-1942)
Mr. DURANLEAU:
This matter has been under careful consideration by the government and we have come to the conclusion that we should ask the house to extend the life of the commission to the end of this fiscal year. The commission has been in operation only since January 1, 1933, and it was thought that it should be continued a few months longer and we should let another parliament decide whether it should be abolished or its powers modified. A bill will be presented shortly to extend the life of the commission to the end of this fiscal year.
