95. Sir H. BRITTAIN

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Overseas Trade Department whether any measures are being adopted to encourage or discourage the investment of foreign capital in the United Kingdom?

No measures are at present being adopted with either object.

Sir H. BRITTAIN

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that twelve months ago I was informed by his Department that the question was under careful consideration?
