HC Deb 15 June 1932 vol 267 c396
42. Mr. T. WILLIAMS

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will state, by categories, the declared value of arms and munitions and naval and military stores, not including sporting arms and munitions, of British manufacture licensed for export to Japan and China for the month of May, 1931, and May, 1932?

Mr. HORE-BELISHA

It is not the practice to make public information as to the value of material covered by export licences.

Mr. WILLIAMS

How are we to know to what extent licences are being issued for this purpose unless the value of the materials is given?

Mr. HORE-BELISHA

The information for which my hon. Friend now asks has been given.

Forward to
