HC Deb 10 November 1930 vol 244 c1341W
Sir W. de FRECE

asked the President of the Board of Trade which nations in Europe at the present time provide state subsidisation for any of the goods they export; what exports are subsidised by each country concerned; and what is the rate of subsidy or the amount of the export bounty in each case?

Mr. GILLETT

I regret that full information on this matter is not available. I am, however, sending the hon. Member a copy of a League of Nations Document (C.E.1. 42) prepared in connection with the World Economic Conference which contains some information on the subject. I understand that the Economic Organisation of the League is at present engaged in the task of bringing the document up to date.
