HC Deb 08 November 1937 vol 328 c1392
72. Sir Percy Hurd

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether in view of the serious consequences to British egg production of the sudden increase of egg imports in the closing weeks of last year, the Government is seeking the co-operation of the chief exporting countries so as to obviate a recurrence of these losses?

Mr. Stanley

Informal discussions are now taking place with representatives of the chief foreign exporting countries with a view to averting the danger to which my hon. Friend refers.
