§ Mr. FELL (on behalf of Earl Winter-ton)asked the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he could state the number of cases from January, 1900, to January, 1910, inclusive, which had come to the notice of his Majesty's Ambassadors or Ministers in which specific requests for tariff concessions from other countries had been granted in the case of the United States of America, Canada, Germany, France, Austria, Italy, and Great Britain, respectively?
Mr. McKINNON WOODWe have not made the enumeration suggested by the Noble Lord's question. It would be impossible to arrive at a conclusion of any value in this way. As has already been stated, a general survey of the new French tariff and its effects is being made.
