HC Deb 14 December 1922 vol 159 c3159W
Major MOLSON

asked the Minister of Agriculture whether he will consider taking steps to establish a Government permanent marketing office for agricultural produce as in Canada?

Major BARNSTON

I have been asked to reply. The question whether any Government action is necessary or desirable in connection with the marketing of agricultural produce is one which will, no doubt, be considered by the Committee on the distribution and prices of agricultural produce which has just been set up. Until their Report has been received it would be premature to take any action.
