Colonel Hutchisonasked the Minister of Agriculture what quantity of sulphate of ammonia has been exported, or is to be exported, during 1947.
§ Sir S. CrippsI have been asked to reply. Supply and distribution of sulphate of ammonia are planned for the 12 months, July to June. For the period 1st July, 1946 to 30th June, 1947, exports under International Emergency Food Council allocation should be about 266,000 tons. Shipment of 194,000 tons has already been made and the balance will depend upon availability.
