HC Deb 26 June 1916 vol 83 c497
5. Major HUNT

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether, in view of the resolution of the Paris Conference of the necessity of tightening up the blockade before the new German harvest is available, he can give the House the assurance that the Navy will at once be allowed to enforce a strict blockade on all goods like to have enemy countries as their final destination?

Lord R. CECIL

The policy advocated by the hon. Member is now being carried out, and there is no intention to abandon it.
