HC Deb 28 March 1957 vol 567 c1314
2. Mr. J. E, B. Hill

asked the President of the Board of Trade when he expects to receive the report of the Monopolies Commission upon the manufacture and supply of chemical fertilisers.

Sir D. Eccles

I cannot yet say.

Mr. Hill

Can my right hon. Friend say whether the Commission, in conducting its inquiries, can or will have regard to the conditions under which certain fertilisers are supplied from abroad, with special reference to potash supplies?

Sir D. Eccles

Yes, Sir. We hope the Commission will provide us with more information about the supply of potash fertilisers.
