HC Deb 05 March 1934 vol 286 cc1531-2W
Mr. D. G. SOMERVILLE

asked the Secretary to the Overseas Trade Department whether he will be able to make a personal visit to the Levant Fair which is being held this year; and, if not, whether he will be able to send any representative or representatives from his Department?

Lieut.-Colonel COLVILLE

I regret that it will be impossible for me to visit the forthcoming Levant Fair. I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply given to his question of 7th February, to the effect that the newly-appointed Commercial Agent at Haifa will visit Tel-Aviv as occasion arises, and will be at his post in time to attend the forthcoming Levant Fair.
