HC Deb 18 November 1946 vol 430 cc26-7W
80. Major Legge-Bourke

asked the Minister of Food if he will make a statement of the Government's policy towards the World Food Board plan, in view of the recent official U.S. disapproval of the plan.

Mr. Strachey

The policy of His Majesty's Government to the World Food Board was expressed by my hon. Friend the Parliamentary. Secretary to the Ministry of Works, who is leading the United Kingdom Delegation to the F.A.O. conference at Washington, in his opening speech. I am putting a copy of his speech into the Library and also a copy of the speech delivered by Mr. Dodd, the leader of the U.S.A. delegation.
