HC Deb 22 June 1920 vol 130 c1978
91. Mr. BUTLER LLOYD

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether his attention has been called to the fact that German toys and other things are being sold in England without being marked with their place of origin; if he is aware that much German produce is sold to neutral countries and then passed on to this country; and if he will take steps to alter this state of affairs?

Mr. BRIDGEMAN

The answer to the first and second parts of the question is in the affirmative. My right hon. Friend is considering the whole question of the marking of foreign goods in the light of the Report of the Merchandise Marks Committee, copies of which will shortly be available.
