HC Deb 24 May 1921 vol 142 cc38-9
33. Mr. LYLE-SAMUEL

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether the Board has drawn out a list of the articles to which the Second Resolution for the Safeguarding of Industries would apply under paragraphs (a) and (b), respectively; and, if so, whether he will issue this list before the Report stage of the Resolution is taken?

Sir P. LLOYD-GREAME (Secretary, Overseas Trade Department)

No, Sir. As was stated during the Debate on these Resolutions, it will be for the Committees to be set up under the Safeguarding of Industries Bill to advise to what articles the provisions of this Resolution should be applied.

60. Mr. LYLE-SAMUEL

asked the Prime Minister whether it is the intention of the Government to proceed with the Safeguarding of Industries Resolutions, and to introduce and pass a Bill founded upon them?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

Yes, Sir.

Mr. WHITE

Can the right hon. Gentleman say on what date it will be introduced?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

Is the hon. Member aware that we have spent already three days on these Resolutions?

Mr. WHITE

Not on the Bill itself.

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

The Bill cannot be introduced until the Resolutions are reported, and passed by the House.
