HC Deb 04 December 1928 vol 223 cc988-9
3. Mr. BELLAMY

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he has, received a copy of an interim Report issued by the Committee appointed by the Manchester Chamber of Commerce to consider the situation in the cotton industry; and, if so, whether he can inform the House as to the nature of the Report?

Sir P. CUNLIFFE-LISTER

The answer to the first part of the question is in the affirmative. As regards the second part, a full summary of the Report was issued by the Committee and appeared in the Press on 2nd February last. I think there was practically a complete copy of the Report published in the "Manchester Guardian."
