§ 14. Mr. GALBRAITHasked the President of the Board of Trade whether he has yet received any Report of the Committee appointed by him under Part II of the Safeguarding of Industries Act to investigate a complaint as to the effect on employment in this country of the importations of wire nails from Germany: and whether, in considering such Report, he will take into account the fact that the main competition in the manufacture of wire nails arises not from Germany but from Belgium, against which country no complaint has been preferred to the Committee in question?
§ Mr. BALDWINThe answer to the first part of the question is in the negative. The hon. Member may rest assured that the Board of Trade will weigh all relevant considerations in considering the Report when received.
