HC Deb 13 June 1921 vol 143 cc68-9W
Captain W. BENN

asked the President of the Board of Trade if, in view of the preclusion of sales of dyes to users in China except through their agents there, he will say who are the agents; and whether the price that the British makers' agents sell at in the China market is less than that to our home users?

Mr. BALDWIN

The agents in China of the British Dyestuffs Corporation (to whom I presume the question refers) are Messrs. Brunner Mond (China) Limited, Shanghai. As regards the second part of the question, I have already informed the hon. and gallant Member that the Government is not responsible for the management of the corporation, and I cannot undertake to answer questions regarding their operations.
