HC Deb 14 February 1895 vol 30 c722
COLONEL HOWARD VINCENT

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if, in the recent arrangements with France in West Africa, steps have been taken to prevent the duties and restrictions imposed upon British trade by that Republic in Indo-China and elsewhere?

SIR E. GREY

The negotiations were, from the nature of the case, limited to certain questions connected with West Africa. The commercial arrangements which have been entered into will be found in a Parliamentary Paper which is on the point of being issued.
