East India Cotton Wool Trade Debate and British Shipping Plans
The piece reports on a long inquiry into importing East India cotton wool to Britain, noting repeated trials and the East India Company’s stance that permanent import benefits are unlikely under current freights. It cites Peel correspondence and committee hearings from 1797 and 1807, detailing trials, freight concerns, and potential private import via permissive trade, with Manchester manufacturers seeking relief for cotton imports to support British industry.
