HC Deb 03 July 1932 vol 156 c5
13. Mrs. WINTRINGHAM

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he proposes under the Draft Order to take powers to exempt enamel and hollow-ware articles used for children's toys, seeing that such articles are not, and never have been, made in Great Britain and that the Committee which considered the case of toys recommended that the duty should not be levied on them?

Mr. BALDWIN

There is no need to make any such exemption as that suggested, since the Draft Order applies only to domestic hollow-ware.

20. Mr. HOGGE

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he proposes to take power, under his Draft Order for imposing a duty of 33⅓ per cent. on imported enamel and hollow-ware goods, to exempt enamelled articles known as blanks which are imported for the purpose of enamelling by British manufacturers?

Mr. BALDWIN

No, Sir. It is not intended that enamelled hollow-ware which is imported into this country for the purposes of undergoing a further process of enamelling should be exempt from the provisions of the Order.

Forward to
