HC Deb 26 February 1946 vol 419 c352W
Mr. Osborne

asked the President of the Board of Trade the terms of the agreement between this country and Sweden for us to export coal against Swedish exports to the United Kingdom of plywood; how far are our deliveries of coal to Sweden behind schedule; and has any material quantity of Swedish timber exports been held up as a consequence.

Mr. Belcher

There is no agreement to supply United Kingdom coal to Sweden in exchange for timber.
