§ 51. Mr. Fauldsasked the President of the Board of Trade if he will commission an economic analysis to establish the likely date when British trade and investment in the countries of Black Africa will overtake that with and in the Southern African countries under minority white régimes.
§ Mr. MasonNo. Our trade with the Southern African countries to which my hon. Friend refers is already exceeded by our trade with the other African countries. In the case of investment I do not think that a date when such a position will be reached can be established by economic analysis.
