HC Deb 13 February 1919 vol 112 c318W
Mr. R. McNEILL

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether the embargo on the importation of hops is to be continued; and whether, in view of the fact that there is an ample supply of home-grown hops in the country, he will give an assurance that no licences for imports will be given during the present year?

Mr. BRIDGEMAN

The question of import restrictions is at present under consideration. Meanwhile, licences for the import of hops are not being issued.
