HC Deb 23 January 1947 vol 432 c347
21. Commander Noble

asked the President of the Board of Trade what price is being paid by his Department for Burma teak; and what is the price to the public.

Sir S. Cripps

The basic prices for the sale to the public of sawn teak from Burma are given in detail on pages 41–43 of the Control of Timber (No. 33) (Imported Timber Prices) Order (S.R. & O. 1944 No. 918). It has not recently been possible to purchase teak from Burma except at prices substantially above these levels.
