MR. TOMLINSON (Preston)

asked the Secretary to the Board of Trade, Whether Her Majesty's Government would be favourable to the early assembling of an International Conference, with a view to the total abolition, by Treaty, of all bounties on the export of sugar?

THE SECRETARY (Baron HENRY DE WORMS) (Liverpool, East Toxteth)

I can only reply to my hon. Friend in the same sense in which the Chancellor of the Exchequer replied to a similar Question which was asked on Monday last.
