HC Deb 09 March 1937 vol 321 cc968-9
44. Mr. Liddall

asked the President of the Board of Trade the proportion of the imports into the United Kingdom from British countries carried in British ships; and whether he will give similar information as to the imports from foreign countries?

Mr. Runciman

This information is not available in respect of any year prior to 1936 and the particulars for that year, which are now being compiled, will not be ready until after Easter. With my hon. Friend's permission, I will circulate the desired information in the OFFICIAL REPORT as soon as it becomes available.
