§ 81. Sir J. D. REESasked the Secretary of State for India whether the scarcity of jute and of sacks resulting from restrictions imposed upon exports from Calcutta is causing inconvenience in Spain; and, if so, whether he will consider the possibility of arranging to mitigate such inconvenience to a friendly nation?
§ The COMPTROLLER of the HOUSEHOLD (Mr. Charles Roberts)My right hon. Friend has asked me to answer this question. Arrangements have recently been made to increase substantially the exports of jute to Spain, and the inconvenience referred to by my hon. Friend will now, I trust, be removed.
