HC Deb 28 October 1919 vol 120 cc451-2
6. Mr. SPOOR

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether this country is about to enter into an agreement with Roumania for the exploitation of her natural wealth; and whether the terms of the agreement will be made public?

Mr. HARMSWORTH

The possibility of increased co-operation of British interests with Roumania in the development of her petroleum resources was discussed some time ago with the late Prime Minister of Roumania, but there have been no recent negotiations on the subject.
