HC Deb 10 December 1964 vol 703 c228W
90. Sir F. Bennett

asked the First Secretary of State and Secretary of State for Economic Affairs when the hon. Member for Torquay may expect an answer to his letter to him dated 6th November, 1964, regarding the impact of the 15 per cent. temporary surcharge on imports on a firm in his constituency; and whether he will give an assurance that an answer will be forthcoming before the temporary surcharge is removed.

Mr. George Brown

I do not understand the question. We replied to the hon. Member on 9th November, saying that his letter had been transferred to another Department. I understand that he has since received a full answer from the Board of Trade.
