EARL of RONALDSHAYasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether India and all the self-governing British Colonies signified their adhesion to the Brussels Sugar Convention of 1902 under the provisions contained in the final protocol for that purpose, and to the additional Act of 1907?
§ Sir E. GREYNo, Sir; neither India nor any of the self-governing Dominions have done so.
EARL of RONALDSHAYfurther asked whether the Indian Government is precluded from granting a tariff preference on sugar to the United Kingdom or other British Colonies and Possessions under any of the provisions of the Brussels Sugar Convention of 1902 or the additional Act of 1907; and, if so, under which provisions?
§ Sir E. GREYThe answer to the first part of the question is in the negative.
