HC Deb 02 June 1919 vol 116 c1659
20. Sir E. BEAUCHAMP

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether vessels fishing from Cardiff are exempted from the Export Duty on coal; and, if so, whether a similar exemption will be granted to vessels fishing from Lowestoft?

Sir A. GEDDES

My hon. Friend appears to be under some misapprehension. No Export Duty is charged upon coal exported from this country, or used for ships' bunkers.
