HC Deb 28 September 1909 vol 11 c1232W
Earl WINTERTON

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether his attention has been called to the fact that at the recent International Horse Show in the Argentine almost every European country was represented by special commissioners; and whether His Majesty's Government can see their way to appointing British commissioners for subsequent, large agricultural shows held in the Argentine and South America?

Mr. CHURCHILL

I have no official information with regard to the first part of the Noble Lord's question. A commissioner will be appointed to represent His Majesty's Government at the forthcoming Agricultural and Railway Exhibitions at Buenos Aires in 1910. As regards other exhibitions, I can give no general answer. Each case will be dealt with on its merits.
