HC Deb 31 May 1922 vol 154 cc2075-6
1. Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether a commercial accord has been signed at Genoa between the Russian and Italian Governments; whether he can state the terms or lay a Paper upon the Table on the subject; and if he is aware of any other commercial or other agreements signed between Russia and other nations, or under negotiation, since the commencement of the Genoa Conference other than the Italian and German Agreements?

The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Mr. Cecil Harmsworth)

In answer to the first two parts of the question, I would refer my hon. and gallant Friend to the answer given to the hon. Member for East Leyton yesterday. I understand that negotiations are in course for a trading agreement between Russia and Czechoslovakia and Norway.

Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY

Will the hon. Gentleman inform the House when the terms are received?

Mr. HARMSWORTH

Yes, I will consider that. It depends upon when we receive the terms.
