Exports to the Soviet Union amounted to £216,244, including re-exports valued at £82,941.
§ 5. Mr. GRAHAM WHITEasked the President of the Board of Trade if an export quota has now been agreed with Russia under the wheat convention?
§ Dr. BURGINNo, Sir, but I understand that the matter is still under discussion between the Soviet Union and the four major exporting countries.
§ Mr. WHITEIn the event of an agreement not being made with Russia on this point, will the other parties to the Convention still remain bound?
§ Dr. BURGINI am afraid that I shall have to ask for notice of that question.
