HC Deb 27 March 1946 vol 421 cc376-7
66. Mr. Fairhurst

asked the President of the Board of Trade, where basic industries are subsidised, or likely to be subsidised, under the provisions of Local Government Act, 1929, and where large sums of money have been, or may be, advanced for the benefit of such industries, if he will take steps to secure the Government having some voice in controlling the sale of such subsidised industries.

Mr. Belcher

I am not clear to what industries my hon. Friend is referring. If he will let me have fuller particulars of what he has in mind, I will try to give him an answer.
