Captain BENN
asked the Prime Minister what are the extensions of Imperial Preference which have already been announced on behalf of the Government as part of their policy?
Mr. BALDWIN
It has already been announced, as regards the proposed tax on imported malting barley, that it is intended to give a preference of one-third.
Captain BENN

Mr. BALDWIN
