§ Lieut.-Colonel NALLasked the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he has any information available in his Department with regard to the success or failure of agricultural cooperative associations in Australia, New Zealand, and Canada; if so, whether the evidence shows that such co-operative enterprises in many cases have led to losses of public money; and whether certain Australian co-operative societies have recently sold out to private companies?
§ Captain HACKINGMy hon. Friend the Under-Secretary regrets that he has no official information on this subject at his disposal.
