§ 18. Mr. Hurdasked the President of the Board of Trade the quantities and values of the export of home-grown 14 grain, showing wheat, barley and oats, separately, exported to France in the past three months.
§ Mr. LowFigures for March are not yet available. Exports to France during the three months December to February were a negligible quantity of barley, value £2, and 15 tons of all other un-milled cereals valued at £506.
§ Mr. HurdCould not my right hon. Friend brush up his statistical department? In fact, there has been an export worth about £1,500,000 in that period. If I put a Question down in a fortnight's time may we have some up-to-date and accurate information?
§ Mr. LowThe March export figures are not available. I think that my hon. Friend is referring to reports that there has been a contract to make the export, but it is quite possible that the contract was not completed in February.
