HC Deb 11 April 1951 vol 486 cc88-9W
Lieut.-Colonel Lipton

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he is yet in a position to give any further information about the proposal to set up a Pulp and Paper Committee in Washington.

Mr. H. Wilson

Invitations to join such a Committee have now been extended through the United States Government to the principal producing and consuming countries. I understand that an announcement as to actual membership will be made by the Central Group of the International Materials Conference as soon as the necessary replies have been received.
