Mr. Bullard
asked the Minister of Agriculture if he is satisfied that the potato crop for the coming season will meet the requirements of the market.
Sir T. Dugdale
It is too early to estimate the yield of the potato crop.
Mr. Bullard
Does not the right hon. Gentleman think there is every prospect of supplies being adequate, and, if so, can he say anything about the 20,000 tons of potatoes coming from the Argentine in exchange for motor lorries which we are to send there? Can he say who bought these potatoes, and when they are coming to this country?
Sir T. Dugdale
That is an entirely different question. Perhaps my hon. Friend will put it down on the Order Pa per?
