asked the Minister of Agriculture when he expects to receive the report of the Sugar Industry Investigation Committee, of which Mr. Wilfred Greene, K.C., is the chairman, and whether any advice will be tendered on behalf of his Department upon the constitutional question raised by the marketing schemes which have been submitted; and will the report be printed and circulated before the probable date when this House is called upon to discuss the long-term policy of His Majesty's Government?

As regards the first part of the question, I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply I gave on Tuesday last to my hon. Friend the Member for Hallam (Mr. L. Smith), when I indi- cated that it was expected that the Committee would report in November. As regards the second part, the Committee has already examined representatives of the Ministry upon every aspect of the marketing schemes. The answer to the third part of the question is in the affirmative.
