HC Deb 06 April 1944 vol 398 c2167
41. Mr. Wootton-Davies

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies of what British colonial products there are likely to be shortages after the war; and what remedial action is being taken.

Captain McEwen (Lord of the Treasury)

I have been asked to reply. As this Question covers such a very wide range of subjects, my right hon. and gallant Friend does not feel that it lends itself to treatment by Question and answer. But if my hon. Friend will let him know what particular Colonial products he has in mind, my right hon. and gallant Friend will be glad to furnish the information required.
