The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Lord Robert Cecil)

No information on this subject has been received by His Majesty's Government, but, if the hon. Member desires, His Majesty's Minister at Peking will be asked to furnish a report upon it.

Sir J. D. REES

What Government is meant by "Government stimulus?"

Lord ROBERT CECIL

I apprehend the Government of China. I do not know.
