§ 14. Lord SCONEasked the President of the Board of Trade if it is the intention of the Government to introduce a comprehensive Bill to prevent dumping; and, if so, whether he can state the approximate date?
§ Mr. RUNCIMANVarious meanings have been attached to the word "dumping" and I do not know which meaning my Noble Friend has in mind. In any case the Government would prefer to watch the working of the Import Duties Act before embarking upon further fiscal legislation of a general kind.
§ Mr. HANNONWill the right hon. Gentleman indicate to the House what he means by the word "dumping," because the dumping continues all the time?
§ Mr. SPEAKERHe certainly cannot do so now.
