§ 41. Mr. Collinsasked the President of the Board of Trade whether, in view of the success of the recent Canadian Trade Mission, he will be willing to make similar arrangements for businessmen from the other Dominions who visit the United Kingdom.
§ Mr. Vaughan-MorganYes, Sir. We are always ready to make official arrangements for business visitors who come here under the sponsorship of their Government.
§ Mr. CollinsDoes that Answer mean that the Department will initiate arrangements for such visits and that similar visits by businessmen of other Dominions will be given the same management and the same V.I.P. treatment?
§ Mr. Vaughan-MorganThere is a slight difference because in this case the visit was initiated by the Canadian Government themselves as a step towards implementing their declared aim of diverting trade towards the United Kingdom. We shall, of course, give the warmest welcome to any other missions with a similar objective.
