The speaker outlines a Commonwealth Ministerial Delegation to the Coronation and Imperial Conference with aims to study British finance and defence, national insurance, and trade protection. He mentions London meetings with the Bank of England, Treasury, and British authorities, and notes plans for country life promotion and colonial exchange, stressing the need for import reduction, export growth, and better rural infrastructure. He also references New Zealand policy experiments and expects to meet Mr Nash, the New Zealand treasurer, in London. He confirms Mr Menzies will manage Treasury in his absence and urges letters to the Private Secretary.
