HC Deb 06 July 1938 vol 338 c410W
Mr. Benn

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether the modifications made in quotas of cotton and artificial silk piece-goods allowed to be imported into Ceylon have been such as to meet the representations that have been made by the Ceylon ministry as to the hardship caused by the imposition of such quotas?

Mr. M. MacDonald

I have no reason to doubt that the modifications made achieved their object, which was to meet the representations made to my predecessor by Ceylon Ministers.
