HC Deb 13 May 1935 vol 301 c1384W
Mr. HALL-CAINE

asked the Secretary to the Overseas Trade Department what was the approximate expenditure, for the latest year for which figures are available, by Austria, Italy, Spain, France, Germany, and Poland upon tourist propaganda; and whether these figures have been taken into account in deciding the amount of the Government grant to the Travel and Industrial Association of Great Britain?

Lieut.-Colonel COLVILLE

The reply to the first part of the question is lengthy, and involves a number of figures. I will, therefore, with my hon. Friend's permission, send him a memorandum on the subject. As regards the second part of the question, in fixing the grant at £4,000, regard was had solely to the special needs of this country.
