HC Deb 26 May 1949 vol 465 cc110-1W
93. Mr. Cooper

asked the President of the Board of Trade when an announcement will be made regarding the setting up of the Export Promotion Committee under the chairmanship of Sir Graham Cunningham; and who will be the members of this Committee.

Mr. Bottomley

At the meeting in the Board of Trade on 26th April on the need for increased exports to North America, a Committee, under the chairmanship of Sir Clive Baillieu and representative of industry and finance, was set up to settle the lines on which Sir Graham Cunningham's work could be most effectively carried out. The time and contents of any further announcement are matters for that Committee or for such other body as it may have decided to establish.
