HC Deb 07 May 1919 vol 115 cc924-5W
Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKE

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in view of the establishment of the principle of Imperial Preference embodied in the Budget, he will present to the House a detailed statement setting forth the commodities to which Imperial Preference is to apply and showing the principal Empire and foreign sources of supply of each commodity or group of commodities affected by the new Preference proposals, as well as an estimate of the anticipated revenue from Customs Duties in respect of these commodities from Empire and foreign sources, respectively?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

I dealt with this subject pretty fully in my Budget Statement, but if my hon. Friend, on further consideration, thinks that the information already given is insufficient, I shall be glad to consult with him as to the presentation of such a Paper as he suggests.
