HC Deb 11 December 1922 vol 159 c2349
22. Major ENTWISTLE

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether be has received a complaint, under Part II of the Safeguarding of Industries Act, in regard to imports of ramie yarn; and, if so, whether he proposes to refer the complaint to a Committee of Inquiry?

Sir P. LLOYD-GREAME

It has been the consistent practice of the Board of Trade not to publish information regarding any particular complaint received by the Board unless it is referred to a Committee. I am sure it will be readily appreciated that it is desirable to adhere to this practice.
