HC Deb 23 July 1908 vol 193 c331
MR. LYNCH (Yorkshire, W.R., Ripon)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether it has come to his knowledge that the Russian Government contemplate issuing a loan in Great Britain.

SIR EDWARD GREY

I have no information to the effect suggested by the hon. Member.

*MR. REES (Montgomery Boroughs)

asked whether this was a matter in which the Government could interfere, if people were willing to lend their money?

SIR EDWARD GREY

Of course, borrowing in the open market is no affair of ours. I presume the Question was put to ascertain facts.
