HC Deb 23 June 1939 vol 348 c2612W
Sir R. Rankin

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether his attention has been called to the plan under which the whole of Japan's surplus of tinned salmon, estimated to amount to about 680,000 cases, is to be sold to British importers; what effect this proposal will have on our trade with Canada in respect of tinned salmon; and whether he proposes to take any action in the matter?

Mr. Cross

I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply I gave on the 21st June to the hon. Member for East Ham, South (Mr. Barnes).
