HL Deb 20 May 1954 vol 187 c830
THE CHANCELLOR OF THE DUCHY OF LANCASTER (VISCOUNT WOOLTON)

My Lords, with the leave of your Lordships, I beg to announce that the Government have agreed to the import of an additional 50,000 tons of newsprint from non-dollar sources in 1955. I thought that it would be convenient if I made this statement in the House before it appeared in the Press.
