HC Deb 21 February 1933 vol 274 cc1573-4
17. Sir HENRY CAUTLEY

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he will take the opportunity of the presence in London of the Argentine mission to point out the difficulties arising in Anglo-Argentine trade from the fact that we buy annually approximately £50,000,000 worth of Argentine productions whereas the Argentine buys only £11,000,000 worth of United Kingdom goods; and will he ask the mission to take steps to reduce this inequality in mutual trade?

Dr. BURGIN

My hon. and learned Friend may rest assured that this matter and all relevant considerations are being taken into account.
