HC Deb 26 July 1926 vol 198 cc1677-8
20. Sir HARRY BRITTAIN

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Overseas Trade Department what is the present position of British trade with Rumania; and whether, seeing that the latter country is of great potential wealth and recovering from after-War difficulties, any efforts are being made to indicate openings for trade to the commercial community?

Mr. A. M. SAMUEL (Secretary, Overseas Trade Department)

Exports from the United Kingdom to Rumania have gradually increased each year for the last few years, while imports from Rumania have remained fairly steady. Openings for British trade in Rumania are constantly being brought to the notice of United Kingdom manufacturers in the course of the ordinary work of the Department.
