11. Mr. WADDINGTONasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Overseas Trade Department whether he has received any report of the inadequate representation of British industries at the recent Toronto Exhibition; and whether he proposes to take any action to influence British traders to exhibit in subsequent years, having regard to the great importance of the exhibition?
Mr. KELLAWAYI am fully aware of the importance of this exhibition. Mr. Field, His Majesty's Trade Commissioner at Toronto, who organised a Bureau of Information at the exhibition, has furnished me with a Report from which it is evident that a more adequate representation of United Kingdom industries is very desirable in future years. The Department of Overseas Trade will be glad to give any assistance it can with a view to securing this end, and is taking the opportunity of a visit which Mr. Field is at present paying to this country to discuss with him the steps which can best be taken.
