HC Deb 19 February 1929 vol 225 c922
1. Sir HARRY BRITTAIN

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he will cause an inquiry to be instituted into the prices of comparable safeguarded articles to-day and before they were safeguarded?

The PRESIDENT of the BOARD of TRADE (Sir Philip Cunliffe-Lister)

I would refer my hon. Friend to the answer which I gave on 11th December to the hon. Member for Peckham (Mr. Dalton), a copy of which I am sending him.

Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY

Would the right hon. Gentleman also include a statement from the Minister of Agriculture with regard to the increase of prices of goods affecting his Department?
