HC Deb 23 October 1952 vol 505 c138W
83. Mr. Baker White

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the provisions in his regulations as to foreign travel allowances which govern the taking of quantities of valuable personal jewelry out of this country.

Sir A. Salter

An export licence is required to take jewelry out of the United Kingdom, but under an administrative concession United Kingdom residents making temporary visits to places outside the sterling area do not require licences for reasonable quantities ofbona fide personal effects. I am sending my hon. Friend a copy of the notice which defines this concession.
