HC Deb 14 December 1922 vol 159 c3149
91. Mr. HOUFTON

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether there is in existence at the present time any commercial treaty or understanding between this country and France which precludes the imposition of import duties on French goods entering the United Kingdom; and, if so, will he give particulars of such treaty or understanding and what notice is required to abrogate same?

The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the BOARD of TRADE (Viscount Wolmer)

I have been asked to reply. The answer to the first part of the question is in the negative, and the second part, therefore, does not arise.
