asked the President of the Board of Trade what countries have placed an embargo on imports from this country.
Sir Stafford Cripps

No country has placed an embargo on all imports from the United Kingdom, but many countries control their imports from us and other countries by licence. Full details are published in each case, as they become known, in the "Board of Trade Journal."
Mr Daniel Lipson

Is the President of the Board of Trade taking any action in such cases?
Sir Stafford Cripps

We naturally make representations in every case where we can.
