HC Deb 17 October 1939 vol 352 cc695-6W
Mr. Erskine Hill

asked the Minister of Supply whether he can make any statement as to the fixing of prices for wool in Scotland?

Mr. Burgin

It is proposed that the Ministry of Supply should acquire all stocks of British wools, and that various questions relating to the terms of acquisition should be considered, in the first instance, by an Advisory Committee representative of all the interests concerned. A meeting of this committee is being called at an early date.
