HC Deb 15 June 1932 vol 267 c396
41. Sir BERTRAM FALLE

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he is aware that typewriters bearing the words "Made in Canada," but really of United States origin, are being offered for sale in this country: that to qualify for the description "Made in Canada" a typewriter need have a 25 per cent. content only, such content including labour, materials, and overheads, and thereupon claims a 99 per cent. rebate of the duty paid on these machines entering Canada; and if he will look into the matter?

Mr. HORE-BELISHA

My attention has already been called to this matter, which is receiving consideration.
