§ Mr. PeartI recently visited Denmark, at the invitation of the Danish Minister of Agriculture, in order to meet him and see something of Danish agriculture. I had useful and informative informal discussions on a variety of topics of mutual interest with Danish Ministers and agricultural personalities, but I engaged in no negotiation and no decisions were taken. In our conversations no specific reference was made to the subjects mentioned by my hon. and learned Friend.
