HC Deb 06 June 1932 vol 266 c1585
38. Mr. MITCHESON

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he is aware that the Canadian Government permit goods to be stamped as made in Canada provided that 25 per cent. only of the invoice value is represented by Canadian material and labour; and will he take steps to prevent such goods being admitted into the United Kingdom as Empire products when in fact they are 75 per cent. American?

Mr. JOHN COLVILLE (Secretary, Overseas Trade Department)

I would refer my hon. Friend to the answer given on 24th May to the hon. Member for Linlithgow (Sir A. Baillie), a copy of which I am sending him.
