HC Deb 23 January 1940 vol 356 c418W
Mr. Leach

asked the Secretary to the Overseas Trade Department whether he has any information as to the way in which Germany fostered her export trade from 1933 onwards by regulating the relationship between exporter and importer; and whether, in view of the tremendous opportunities now open through the curtailment of Germany's overseas commerce, he will consider introducing some similar scheme for this country?

Mr. R. S. Hudson

Yes, Sir, but I doubt whether the methods adopted by Germany would be suited to our own case.
