HC Deb 26 July 1933 vol 280 cc2580-1
45. Mr. PERKINS

asked the Prime Minister whether in view of the dissatisfaction existing among British manufacturers over the recent increases in the Australian duties against certain British manufactured goods, and in view of the fact that these increases are in direct opposition to the spirit of the Ottawa Agreements, he will allow the House an opportunity to discuss this matter before the summer Adjournment?

The PRIME MINISTER (Mr. Ramsay MacDonald)

I would remind my hon. Friend that, as announced in the House on the 20th July, matters relating to the Dominions will be discussed to-morrow in connection with the Consolidated Fund (Appropriation) Bill.

Mr. PERKINS

Can the right hon. Gentleman give same assurance that the short time available to-morrow will not be monopolised by ex-Cabinet Ministers?
