HC Deb 09 June 1921 vol 142 c2101W
Sir C. YATE

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Overseas Trade Department whether, in the revised table of consular fees which is to be issued shortly, he will have a column inserted showing the difference, if any, between the revised fees now to be levied by British consuls abroad and the fees levied by the consuls of the foreign countries concerned in this country?

Mr. BALDWIN

Consular fees are levied by some 50 foreign countries, a comparative statement would therefore be a work of great elaboration and expense, and I regret that I cannot undertake to include such a table in the British consular fee table.
