HC Deb 27 November 1967 vol 755 c34W
75. Mr. Wingfield Digby

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he will now re-examine what can be done to assist the chipboard industry in this country, with a view to absorbing a greater amount of forestry thinnings and reducing the quantity of imported material used in building.

Mr. Darling

Devaluation should assist the industry. I should, however, be glad to examine any proposals for improving its competitive efficiency.
