§ MR. KEARLEYI beg to ask Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer whether it is proposed to charge the sugar duty upon imported honey which consists to the extent of four-fifths of its weight of invert and cane sugar; if so, how he proposes to levy an equivalent duty upon honey produced in this country.
§ SIR M. HICKS BEACHNo duty is charged on importations of pure honey, but if mixed with sugar it will be liable to the proportionate sugar duty.
