HC Deb 23 June 1938 vol 337 cc1287-8W
Mr. Butcher

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether, in view of the increased quantities of dried milk powder imported from Holland and that the competition of these imports with Home produced products is likely to have prejudicial effects upon British agriculturalists and manufacturers, he will consider imposing a quota upon these imports?

Mr. Stanley

Imports of dried milk powder into the United Kingdom from the Netherlands are already limited by volun tary arrangement with the Netherlands Government, the quantity being agreed from time to time after consideration of the supply position and discussions with the representatives of home producers.
