HC Deb 14 February 1939 vol 343 cc1565-6W
Mr. Hall-Caine

asked the President of the Board of Trade what representations he has received from organisations of manufacturers in this country with regard to the recent barter arrangements between the Lancashire Cotton Corporation and Germany; and whether he has given his approval to these arrangements?

Mr. Stanley

I have received no representations from organisations of manufacturers regarding any arrangements of the kind referred to, which in any case would not require my approval.
