§ 46. Mr. Brockwayasked the Prime Minister what proposals Her Majesty's Government have made for the closer association of the economies of the United Kingdom and British Colonies with the economy of the United States of America.
§ Mr. R. A. ButlerI have been asked to reply.
The policies of successive Governments have been directed to the substantial reduction of tariffs and other barriers to trade and to the elimination of discriminatory treatment in international commerce, thus leading to closer relations with the economies of other friendly countries, including the United States of America.
