asked whether the Land Inquiry Committee formed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer has reported upon the question of the merits and practicability of the single-tax principle?

I am told that the Committee will shortly publish a Report, which will give the hon. Member the information he desires.

Does the constitution of the Committee preclude them from dealing with that aspect of the case?

That I cannot say, but I should think not.

Is this a question of considering the advisability of taxing the farmer for everything, and giving him nothing more for what he sells?

I really know-nothing about it.
