The Chairman said that the sub-committee on insolvency had addressed circulars to the Canterbury members in the Assembly, inviting them to peruse the draft Act, and to give their opinions thereon. Copies of the circular had also been sent to the various Chambers of Commerce throughout New Zealand, requesting them to take action in matter. There had not been time to receive replies from the Chambers of Commerce, and the only reply from the members had been from Mr Beeves, who declined to pledge himself to vote for any particular Act, but that he would give the matter consideration.
