HC Deb 28 February 1921 vol 138 c1386
10. Mr. G. TERRELL

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he is aware that the sealed samples of pencils for school use which were recently exhibited by the London County Council for the purpose of obtaining tenders for the supply of large quantities were pencils of German origin; and what action he proposes to take in the matter?

Sir R. HORNE

I was not aware of the facts alleged by my hon. Friend, but I do not think that I can take any action in the matter.
