Artists and Process Craftsmen (Greeting Cards)

HC Deb 09 July 1958 vol 591 cc28-9W

Mr. G. M. Thomson

asked the Minister of Labour if he will consider the effect on the employment of British artists and British process craftsmen arising from the free import of photographic positives of greeting card designs from the United States of America; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Iain Macleod

I have no evidence that the import of these articles has had any effect on employment.
