HC Deb 21 March 1860 vol 157 c964
MR. PULLER

said, he would beg to ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether any information had yet been received as to the amount of Duty which the French Government intended to impose on the export of Rags?

LORD JOHN RUSSELL

said, that the Government had received no further information than that which he had communicated to the House in his statement on a previous occasion. The French Government intended to propose some modification of the prohibition, but that at that time they had not made up their minds as to the amount of the duty to be levied.
