HC Deb 05 March 1928 vol 214 cc810-1
47. Sir WILLIAM LANE MITCHELL

asked the Prime Minister if arrangements can be made for the Committee inquiring into the question of rubber restriction to make an interim Report at the earliest possible moment, and so help to allay the anxiety now felt in the rubber industry?

The PRIME MINISTER (Mr. Baldwin)

My hon. Friend may rest assured that the sole object of the Government is the development and prosperity of this industry, and that, as I have already said, the time and manner of any announcement will be such as will best conduce to that end.
