§ 61. Mr. Parkerasked the President of the Board of Trade why import licences were given to Rival Lamps Limited to import 62 cylinders of gas from France when the necessary supplies could not be obtained in this country as the firm was engaged in a wage dispute.
§ Mr. P. ThorneycroftThis company has neither applied for nor received a licence permitting the import of these gases. Compressed gases are freely admissible from France under the open general licence.
