HC Deb 24 February 1936 vol 309 cc24-5
36. Sir PERCY HARRIS

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether any arrangements are being made for the exhibition of British livestock in the agricultural section of the Levant Fair at Tel Aviv to be held in May next?

Mr. ELLIOT

No official arrangements are being made for the exhibition of British livestock at the Levant Fair.

Sir P. HARRIS

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that very much livestock is imported into Palestine, and will he make representations to agriculture interests in this country as to the desirability of advertising the advantage of British livestock?

Mr. ELLIOT

I am grateful to the hon. Member for the attention which he has drawn to the matter, and I hope British agricultural interests will see their way to take some such action.
