34. Mr. George Cunningham

asked the Secretary of State for Trade if any representations have been made to the Australian authorities in protest against the 40 per cent, initial duty and additional duty of 0.30 Australian dollars per square metre on certain specialised silk linings exported from the United Kingdom.
