§ 12. Sir ROBERT HAMILTONasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he can state the quantity of cloves that has come in as deposit from producers to the Clove Growers Association in Zanzibar since its reconstitution on its present basis; the quantity that has been purchased by the association since its reconstitution; and the quantity deposited with the association which has been sold to the association itself or to others, giving the average price in each case?
§ Sir P. CUNLIFFE-LISTERI have not got this detailed information, and I am sure my hon. Friend will appreciate that it would be unfair to require a trading agency to disclose particulars of current trading. But the Resident intends to publish an annual report upon the work of the association.
