§ 67. Mr. William Hamiltonasked the President of the Board of Trade to what extent there has been an increase in inquiries by industrialists to the Export Intelligence Department following devaluation.
§ Mrs. Gwyneth Dunwoody:The number of inquiries dealt with by Export Intelligence, which includes the Export Services Branch and the export sections of the Board's Regional Officers, has increased by approximately 10 per cent. following devaluation. In the first week the number of inquiries received directly in response to the Export Intelligence advertisements in the national Press more than doubled.
