HC Deb 05 November 1929 vol 231 cc818-9
20. Mr. MATTERS

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will state what is the value of pastoral and agricultural produce imported into the United Kingdom from the Argentine Republic for the period 1st January, 1925, to 31st December, 1928?

Mr. W. GRAHAM

As the answer involves a table of figures, I will, with my hon. Friend's permission, circulate it in the OFFICIAL REPORT.

Following are the figures:

The declared value of the total imports of merchandise into the United Kingdom consigned from the Argentine Republic was as follows:

£
1925 68,856,000
1926 67,505,000
1927 76,496,000
1928 76,789,000

Practically the whole of these imports consisted of pastoral and agricultural produce.
