Sir R. Gower

asked the President of the Board of Trade the number and value of dressed and undressed furs imported into the United Kingdom in each year since 1937; the countries whence the furs are obtained; and the chief kinds imported?

Mr. Dalton

Particulars of the number and value of undressed and dressed fur skins imported into the United Kingdom in 1937, 1938 and 1939 and the principal countries whence consigned may be found on pages 116, 332 and 333 of Volume II of the Annual Statement of the Trade of the United Kingdom for 1939. Details of individual kinds of furs, other than rabbit skins, are not separately recorded. The publication of detailed information relating to imports has been suspended since 1939 on grounds of security.
