HC Deb 07 November 1918 vol 110 c2270
71. Sir R. COOPER

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he is aware that the Deutsche-Asiatische Bank in China has not been liquidated in accordance with the undertaking given by the Chinese Government in 1917; whether any action has been taken to press the Chinese Government to fulfil its undertaking; if so, what those steps were; and whether he proposes to take any further action with a view to bringing to an end the present financial power that remains in the hands of German financiers interested in China?

Lord R. CECIL

I would refer the hon. Member to the answer which was given yesterday to a question by the hon. and gallant Member for the Andover Division of Hants (Colonel Faber) on the same subject.
