HC Deb 07 May 1934 vol 289 c730
24. Colonel ROPNER

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether the shipping industry has been invited to give evidence before the committee which is considering the question of the assistance which is to be given for the production of home-grown sugar?

Mr. ORMSBY-GORE

I understand that the Sugar Inquiry Committee has not yet invited the shipping industry to appear before it, but that it is willing to receive written statements of evidence from any representative body and to consider in each case the advisability of examining witnesses.
