§ Sir W. de FRECEasked the President of the Board of Trade if he will issue a comparative statement showing the port dues charged by other maritime nations on British shipping and the dues charged by British ports on the shipping of those various foreign countries?
§ Viscount WOLMERI am afraid that the issue of an official statement such as my hon. Friend asks for would involve greater cost and labour than could be justified. Full information, I understand, is given in works of reference issued by private publishers, and I am sending my hon. Friend the name of one of these works.
