HC Deb 18 October 1946 vol 427 c272W
Commander Maitland

asked the President of the Board of Trade what steps he proposes to take in the present circumstances to prevent motorcars being imported into this country which have only recently been exported and sold for profit at second-hand prices.

Sir S. Cripps

The commercial import of motorcars into the United Kingdom is already prohibited from all sources other than the Channel Islands. In the Channel Islands, there are orders in force, made under local legislation, prohibiting the export of motor vehicles to all destinations, except under licence.
