HC Deb 06 March 1929 vol 226 c377
39. Sir NICHOLAS GRATTAN-DOYLE

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he has any information as to the prices of packing paper before and after safeguarding; and whether there has been any increase of price since the industry was safeguarded?

Mr. H. WILLIAMS

I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply given by the President of the Board of Trade on 11th December to the hon. Member for Peckham (Mr. Dalton), of which I am sending him a copy.

Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY

Is the Parliamentary Secretary able to say whether the wages in this industry have been raised?

Mr. WILLIAMS

That does not arise out of the question.
