HC Deb 25 July 1898 vol 62 c1161
MR. R. G. WEBSTER (St. Pancras, E.)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he is in a position to inform the House as to any further facilities granted to foreigners in respect to internal water communication within the Chinese Empire?

MR. CURZON

Her Majesty's Minister at Pekin has reported by telegram that the amendments demanded by him have now been agreed to by the Chinese Government, and that revised regulations are in course of preparation, and will be promulgated very shortly.
