HC Deb 17 August 1909 vol 9 c1085
Mr. FELL

asked how many persons were engaged in the United Kingdom in the work of stripping tobacco before the change was made in the duty, and how many are engaged in the work at the present time?

Mr. CHURCHILL

I regret that the particulars asked for by the hon. Member are not available.

Mr. FELL

May I say that I have seen them published?

Mr. SPEAKER

The hon. Member can convey the information he wishes by letter.
