HC Deb 22 June 1926 vol 197 c259W
Mr. CAMPBELL

asked the President of the Board of Trade the number of British shopping weeks which have been held since the commencement of the year; in how many cases the proposals to this effect have been abandoned; and for what reasons?

Sir P. CUNLIFFE-LISTER

I understand that upwards of 50 "British Shopping Weeks" have been held during the present year, and I am not aware of any having been abandoned. In some cases a "Shopping Week" extended to more than one borough or district.
