MR. A. O'CONNOR (Donegal, East)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether it it intended to appoint a commercial secretary, or other similar officer, in Japan or in China?

MR. CURZON

Arrangements have been made by which Mr. G. Jamieson, Her Majesty's Consul-General at Shanghai, will undertake the duties of Commercial Attaché in China.

MR. A. O'CONNOR

And to Japan?

MR. CURZON

We have not been able to make a similar arrangement with Japan.
