HC Deb 24 July 1903 vol 126 c229
SIR WILLIAM HOLLAND (Yorkshire, W.R., Rotherham)

To ask the President of the Board of Trade whether any country adopting a retaliatory fiscal policy has access to the markets of the United States on more favourable terms than the United Kingdom.

Answered by Mr. Gerald Balfour.). I do not know what definition the hon. Member adopts of the term "retaliatory fiscal policy." I have already stated in answer to a Question that a few articles imported form Germany, France, Italy, and Portugal enjoy tariff reduction in the United States which are refused to similar goods of British production. † Details will be given in the Return which has been promised to the hon. Member for Exeter.
