§ Mr. BottomleyFifteen applications to export potatoes to Spain have been received by my Department in the last six months. All were for seed potatoes and all were granted. I am unable to give separate figures for the Wash ports. No applications to export culinary (i.e. ware) potatoes to Spain have been received by my Department during that period.
