HC Deb 20 July 1894 vol 27 cc545-6
COLONEL HOWARD VINCENT (Sheffield, Central)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs when the Report from Her Majesty's Embassy in Berlin, called for three months ago, on the question of goods manufactured in German prisons by prison labour at nominal wages and exported to England and sold in competition with English manufacturers, will be presented to Parliament?

THE UNDER SECRETARY OF STATE FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Sir E. GREY,) Northumberland, Berwick

The Report from Her Majesty's Embassy at Berlin has been received. It will be laid before Parliament, together with other Reports upon the same subject, as soon as they have all been received.

COLONEL HOWARD VINCENT

When are they likely to be laid before Parliament?

SIR E. GREY

I cannot tell; there will be no unjustifiable delay.
