§ 97. Mr. R. Robinsonasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether in order to encourage the development of the fruit canning industry in the West Indies, he will urge the Governments concerned to set up minimum standards of quality such as are enforced in Great Britain, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the United States of America.
§ Mr. HopkinsonThe Jamaica Government has already engaged an expert adviser and the mission of United Kingdom industrialists which visited the West Indies last autumn has called attention to the need for minimum standards. I agree that it is important to enforce such standards and I am asking the Governors of West Indian Colonies what is being done.
