§ 12. Mr. Bottomleyasked the President of the Board of Trade why there is to be no British Pavilion at the St. Eriks Fair, Sweden, for 1955.
§ Mr. P. ThorneycroftI understand that the organisers have dropped the proposal because the British-Swedish Chamber ofCommerce and the Federation of British Industries, after consulting representative firms which exhibited in the Pavilion in previous years, consider that it is better to exhibit in trade sections rather than in a national pavilion.
