Mr. ALBERYasked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury if he will issue instructions to the effect that advertisement spaces in Government publications are not in future to be let for the purpose of advertising any foreign produced or manufactured articles of a kind which is also produced or manufactured in this country or in the British Dominions?
§ Mr. PETHICK-LAWRENCEI have looked into this matter and see no reason for the issue of instructions such as the hon. Member suggests.

§ Mr. PETHICK-LAWRENCEThe attitude of this Government to this question is precisely that which the late Government took up.
