§ 40. Miss HORSBRUGHasked the Secretary to the Overseas Trade Department if he has any figures to show an increase of purchases by Denmark in the United Kingdom of jute wrappers?
§ Mr. COLVILLEYes. The imports of jute wrappers into Denmark from the United Kingdom during the first three months of this year were more than 823 double those for the same period last year. The actual figures are 230.3 metric tons against 106.7 metric tons.
§ Mr. C. WILLIAMSIs it not a fact that this is mainly due to the increased export trade, in spite of what is said by certain persons to the contrary?
§ Mr. COLVILLEMy hon. Friend must form his own opinion on that point.
