HC Deb 11 March 1864 vol 173 cc1825-6
MR. DALGLISH

said, he wished to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether the Foreign Office has any later information on the establishment of Blockades on Danish or German Ports, or the Free Ports of Hamburgh, Lubeck, &c., than is contained in the Gazette; and, considering the importance to commerce of early information of Blockades being established, whether the Foreign Office will telegraph such informa- tion as soon as received to the principal Ports, and thus anticipate the Gazette?

MR. LAYARD

said, in reply, that the Government had received no further information than that which had already been published in the Gazette. If any fresh information of importance arrived, he would take care to make arrangements that the very earliest information should be communicated to those interested.
