HC Deb 20 March 1940 vol 358 cc2005-6W
Sir J. Mellor

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he will clarify the arrangements which have been made for assisting manufacturers for export to obtain supplies of raw materials in such quantities and at such prices as will enable them to compete successfully in over-sea markets?

Mr. R. S. Hudson

My hon. Friend will no doubt have read the White Paper recently published on "The Aims and Plan of Work of the Export Council"(Cmd. 6183). Information in regard to the export groups already formed was given yesterday in answer to a Question by the hon. Member for Seaham (Mr. Shinwell).
