Colonel Wedgwood

asked the President of the Board of Trade when he will be able to produce plans for securing maximum production in this country, both of munitions and goods for export, so that neither machines nor men may stand idle?

Major Lloyd George

I would refer the right hon. and gallant Gentleman to the statement made yesterday by my right hon. Friend the Lord Privy Seal as to the establishment of the Production Council, which represents the Government Departments principally concerned, including the Board of Trade.
