Major Millsasked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury how long the application for an increased duty on foreign eggs has been before the Import Duties Advisory Committee; and when he expects to receive their report?
§ Lieut.-Colonel ColvilleI understand that this application was received by the Import Duties Advisory Committee on 23rd September, 1936. With regard to the second part of the question, I would refer my hon. and gallant Friend to the answer given to a question by my hon. and gallant Friend the Member for Peters-field (Sir R. Dorman-Smith) on 4th May, 1937, of which I am sending him a copy.
