§ Mr. Windsorasked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster what prohibition is instituted against the importation of chicory from Belgium; and whether he will state the reasons for such prohibition of this important winter vegetable-salad?
Major Lloyd GeorgeI have been asked to reply. Chicory is prohibited except by licence under the Import Prohibition (No. 1) Order, the object of which is to limit expenditure on luxuries and nonessentials. No licences are at present being issued.
