§ 6. Sir WALTER de FRECEasked the President of the Board of Trade how many applications for guaranteed credits for the building of additional beet-sugar factories have been received this year; and whether, in view of the fact that the full sugar subsidy is now drawing to a close, it is proposed to grant under the Trade Facilities Act any such further guarantees?
§ The FINANCIAL SECRETARY to the TREASURY (Mr. Ronald McNeill)Three applications have been received other than those referred to in my answer to the hon. Member on the 9th November. The answer to the second part of the question is that the point is, I understand, under consideration by the Trade Facilities Advisory Committee.
