HC Deb 10 March 1932 vol 262 cc2005-6W
Lieut.-Colonel APPLIN

asked the Secretary to the Overseas Trade Depart- ment whether, in view of the demand far space at the London section of the British Industries Fair, receipts for rentals have now been adjusted to cover the whole expense of the fair, the cost of administration, and the cost of advertising, hitherto in whole or in part defrayed by public funds?

Major COLVILLE

The Department's estimate for the forthcoming British Industries Fair has been framed on the basis indicated in my hon. and gallant Friend's question. The rental to be charged to exhibitors is now under consideration.
