30. Mr. A. REED

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he has received representations from the Federation of British Industries regarding the increasingly unsatisfactory state of the balance of trade between Great Britain and Holland; whether he has taken any action to protect the interests of British exporters in this matter; and, if so, with what result?

Yes, Sir. Discussions regarding improved facilities for United Kingdom exports to Holland are proceeding.
