HC Deb 10 April 1922 vol 153 c5
11. Mr. HURD

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will give the latest available figures of the imports of fresh milk and preserved milk in various forms, showing countries of origin?

19. Mr. KILEY

asked the President of the Board of Trade the number and value of fabric gloves imported during the months of January, February, and March, 1921, and also the number and value for the same months in the years 1920, 1914, and 1913?

Mr. BALDWIN

The information desired is not at present available, and special tables will need to be compiled. I will send these to the hon. Members when they are ready.

Mr. HURD

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that there is urgency in this matter in view of the feeling among farmers that owing to the importation of milk this is unfair competition with them?

Mr. BALDWIN

I quite realise that at this moment it would be of great interest to have these figures and I will do all I can to expedite their publication.

Forward to
