I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury what is the amount of prison-made foreign goods which has been prohibited from landing. under the provisions of the Prison-made Goods Act up to December 31st, 1904.

THE FINANCIAL SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY (Mr. VICTOR CAVENDISH,) Derbyshire, W.

No goods have been prohibited from being landed nor have any further seizures been made by the Customs Department under the Act referred to since the date of my reply on July 14th† last to a Question by the hon.
