HC Deb 23 February 1927 vol 202 cc1757-8
67. Mr. HURD

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Overseas Trade Department why Canada is not officially represented in the display of the Empire Marketing Board at the British Industries Fair, as are the other Dominions?

The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for COLONIAL AFFAIRS (Mr. Ormsby-Gore)

Participation in a display of this kind is, of course, a matter for the Dominion Government concerned, and I understand that temporary conditions made it impossible for Canada to be officially represented this year in the display in question.
