HC Deb 02 March 1933 vol 275 c565W
Mr. HARVEY

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he is aware of the nature of the contract for flour supplies pressed upon London flour factors by the Millers' Mutual Association before supplies are sent to them; and what action he intends to take to prevent such contracts impairing the effects of the Ottawa Agreement regarding Canadian and Australian flour imports?

Mr. RUNCIMAN:

My attention has been called to the form of agreement into which millers are asking London flour factors dealing with them to enter. I understand that the Millers' Mutual Association as such are not parties to the agreement. I have not been able to see any ground on which I should be justified in intervening.

Forward to
