Part of Orders of the Day — Export Guarantees Bill – in the House of Commons at 12:00 am on 8 February 1945.
There are two questions I would like to put to the President of the Board of Trade. Will a United Kingdom merchant be in order in asking for guarantees in respect of exports of Dutch produce between, say, Surabaya and New York? Secondly, will a United Kingdom merchant be in order for asking for guarantees to export commodities of foreign origin lying in the entrepôt Port of London to, say, Sweden.
