HC Deb 24 February 1882 vol 266 c1528
MR. ANDERSON

asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, If the long promised settlement of the British claims against Brazil is yet arranged for, or how much longer Her Majesty's Government is to tolerate the persistent, evasion practised by the Brazilian Government?

SIR CHARLES W. DILKE

Sir, I can only answer the Question in general terms. I am unable to give any details of what is passing at the present time, but the question is engaging the active attention of Her Majesty's Government.
