§ General CROFTasked the President of the Board of Trade whether he will consider the appointing to the Sugar Com- 367W mission representatives who are interested in sugar production within the Empire?
Captain BATHURSTI have been asked to reply. There is, I understand, no present intention to enlarge either the scope or the personnel of the Sugar Commission. I may remind the hon. and gallant Member that the Commission is concerned with the purchase and importation of sugar, but not with its production.
