HC Deb 12 March 1908 vol 185 c1757
MR. NUTTALL

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether His Majesty's Government will endeavour to make the same arrangement with China as that made by France and Germany, by which sealed mails are sent, via Siberia, from Pekin and other parts of China to London and from London to China.

THE POSTMASTER GENERAL (Mr. SYDNEY BUXTON,) Tower Hamlets, Poplar

My right hon. friend has asked me to reply to the hon. Member's Question. The matter is engaging my attention; but I am not at present in a position to make any statement on the subject.
