HC Deb 06 December 1920 vol 135 cc1763-4W
Mr. KILEY

asked the Minister of Food if he has received a request from the Canadian Government asking that the control of Canadian bacon be removed; and is he in a position to accede to this request?

Sir W. MITCHELL-THOMSON

The reply to the first part of the question is in the affirmative. As a result of further negotiations, however, arrangements have been made for the purchase of the exportable surplus of Canadian bacon to the end of the present year, and the Canadian Government have expressed their satisfaction with these arrangements.
