§ 20. Mr. Greenasked the President of the Board of Trade if he is satisfied that there is sufficient hotel accommodation in London and the provinces to cater for Great Britain's growing tourist trade; and if he will make a statement.
§ Sir D. EcclesNo, Sir; we could do with more good class hotels and I am anxious to see them provided, as the tourist trade is a great earner of foreign exchange.
§ Mr. GreenWhilst appreciating the difficulties of satisfying a fluctuating demand of this kind, can my right hon. Friend say whether he needs, or can be helped to have, further facilities for encouraging the erection of good class hotels for this trade? Has he anything in mind?
§ Sir D. EcclesThat is a different question, which I cannot answer.
