HC Deb 22 February 1946 vol 419 cc307-8W
Colonel J. R. H. Hutchison

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether, now that it is possible for exporters to ship fabrics and articles composed of 100 per cent. silk, rayon and wool, he will take steps to relax restrictions on export of similar articles composed of a mixture of 'these materials such as silk and wool.

Sir S. Cripps

In general, there are no greater restrictions on the export of goods composed of mixtures of textile fibres than exist on goods composed wholly of one fibre. If the hon. and gallant Member will inform me of the goods he has in mind, I shall be glad to look into this matter further.
