55.

Sir HARRY BRITTAIN
asked the Prime Minister whether he is able to indicate an approximate date for the meeting of the Empire Trade Conference?

56.

Mr. HURD
asked the Prime Minister if he has consulted the Governments of the Empire overseas as to the holding of an imperial economic conference; and, if so, with what result?

The PRIME MINISTER
No, Sir. I am not yet in a position to make any statement on the subject. I expect that the telegrams to the Dominions will be sent during the course of this week, but I am not able to give any further information to-day.
