Administrative History

The Committee of the Council on Trade and Plantations was established in 1784 to regulate trade between Britain, its colonies, France and the United States. Following its reconstruction in 1786, it became known as the Board of Trade. Its business was originally conducted at nominal meetings attended by the President and Vice-presidents, but they ceased after 1845.

Originally its functions were consultative, but in the mid-nineteenth century its work became increasingly administrative, including the regulation of railways, merchant shipping and joint stock companies. Although some of its functions were later transferred to other departments, it remained responsible for commercial relations with other countries, imports and exports, tariffs, industrial development, trade statistics, patents and copyright, weights and measures, companies, bankruptcy and insurance. In 1970 the Board was absorbed by the Department of Trade and Industry.

Administrative History

Originally responsible for the revision of tariffs and trade negotiations with foreign countries, The Commercial Department of the Board of Trade took over a number of functions in 1863, including copyright, trademarks, joint stock companies, industrial exhibitions and quarantine. In 1872 it gave up responsibility for commercial treaties and colonial tariffs and amalgamated with the Statistical Department. In 1893 it became the Commercial, Labour and Statistical Department.

Administrative History

The United Kingdom-Dominion Wool Disposals Ltd. was incorporated in 1945 to effect the orderly disposal of large accumulated war-time surpluses of wool held in Britain and to arrange for the marketing of future clips. The Organisation had subsidiaries in each Dominion to conduct local operations. The Commonwealth Wool Conference in January 1952 decided that the Organisation had largely fulfilled its purpose and it was dissolved in 1954.
