HC Deb 11 June 1903 vol 123 c636
MR. HERBERT SAMUEL (Yorkshire, Cleveland)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether his attention has been drawn to the proposal of the New Zealand Government to open shops in Great Britain for the sale of meat at cost price; and whether, if this proposal is carried out, he contemplates the imposition of a countervailing duty on New Zealand meat.

THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE COLONIES (Mr. J. CHAMBERLAIN,) Birmingham, W.

The answer to both questions is in the negative.
