HC Deb 17 June 1952 vol 502 c89W
86. Mr. Edward Davies

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he now has any further statement to make as to the present arrangements for the sale of decorated pottery on the home market.

Mr. H. Strauss

The quota of decorated pottery which can be sold on the home market has now been settled and licences have been issued to manufacturers. Licences are based on the value of each manufacturer's production in 1951, and are valid until the end of October. As my right hon. Friend stated in reply to the hon. Member for Stoke-on-Trent, South (Mr. Ellis Smith) on 22nd May, the scheme will be reviewed in three months' time.
