§ 50. Mr. H. WILLIAMSasked the Minister of Agriculture if the scheme for the voluntary restriction of the imports of condensed milk, milk powder, and cream announced by the Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Trade has now been accepted by the foreign governments concerned; and whether the acceptance has been without any qualification?
§ The FIRST COMMISSIONER of WORKS (Mr. Ormsby-Gore)The proposals referred to for the regulation of imports of processed milks have been accepted by three of the seven foreign Governments concerned. In two cases acceptance is qualified by reservations of a minor character.
§ Mr. WILLIAMSIs the Government of the Netherlands one of them?
§ Mr. ORMSBY-GORENo. The Governments that have accepted are Belgium, Switzerland and Germany.
§ Mr. WILLIAMSWhat hope is there of the Netherlands accepting, seeing that nearly all this skimmed milk comes from that country?
