HC Deb 15 May 1911 vol 25 c1655
Mr. MARTIN

asked on what date respectively were Mr. Hamilton Wickes and Mr. Richard Grigg appointed British trade commissioners, and why they are allowed to advocate protection and Imperial preference?

Mr. TENNANT

Mr. Grigg was appointed on 16th July, 1908, and Mr. Hamilton Wickes on 1st October, 1908. I am not aware of any grounds for the suggestion contained in the second part of the question.
