HC Deb 16 March 1925 vol 181 c1837
23. Mr. RAMSDEN

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Overseas Trade Department whether he has any information regarding the Customs Duties which will now be applied to British goods by the Japanese Government?

Mr. A. M. SAMUEL (Secretary, Overseas Trade Department)

The "Conventional" duties fixed by the Japanese Treaty of 1911 have presumably already been superseded by the "Statutory" rates as from the 10th instant, but it is understood that a new Tariff Bill is in contemplation.
