§ Sir S. CrippsI am not aware of any case of goods which have been waiting for shipment for two months. Although there was delay in shipments of export cargo due to the dock strike, I understand that the shipping facilities for such cargo are now abreast of the demand.
§ Sir Waldron SmithersIs the right hon. and learned Gentleman aware that there is a large amount of woollen textiles awaiting export in Yorkshire, particularly in the Bradford district?
