§ 82. Mr. LAMBasked the Prime Minister whether, in view of the subsidies now being paid by the British taxpayer having for their object the development of Imperial agricultural resources overseas and of the decision that no subsidies can be found for the purpose of developing the agricultural resources of Great Britain, he can state whether it is intended that the interests of British agriculture will be represented at the Empire Economic Conference with a view to securing that home food production shall not be further handicapped?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI am not aware of any subsidies of the nature referred to. I can assure my hon. Friend that the interests of British agriculture will be fully borne in mind in connection with the proposed Imperial Economic Conference.
