§ 21. Lord BURGHLEYasked the Minister of Agriculture if he is in a position to state the amount of chilled beef to be imported during the quarter ending 30th September, 1933?
§ Major ELLIOTArrangements have been made to reduce the amount of chilled beef to be imported in the first half of the quarter ending 30th September next by 10 per cent. below the maximum agreed at Ottawa. The question of the reduction to be arranged for the remainder of that quarter is receiving close attention, and I hope to be in a 1538 position to make a further announcement shortly.
§ Miss HORSBRUGHWill the right hon. Gentleman shortly announce the completion of the negotiations with regard to the wrappers for this meat?
§ Major ELLIOTThat question should be addressed to the President of the Board of Trade.
