§ 56. Sir D. Robertsonasked the President of the Board of Trade how many Scotsmen, representing Scottish industry, are included in the forthcoming official trade Mission to Egypt, the Sudan, and Ethiopia.
§ Mr. P. ThorneycroftThe Mission has been chosen to be generally representative of United Kingdom industry as a whole. Scottish industry as such is not separately represented, but its interests will certainly be covered. It would not be practicable to organise trade missions on a geographical as well as a trade basis without making them unwieldy in size.
