HC Deb 09 July 1930 vol 241 c398
4. Mr. MANDER

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he has received any communications, favourable or otherwise, from foreign countries with reference to the proposed building of the Channel Tunnel?

Mr. A. HENDERSON

No, Sir.

Mr. MANDER

Has the right hon. Gentleman's attention been called to the Prime Minister's statement that the existence of the Tunnel would make diplomatic work less easy, and can he state the reasons for that statement?

Mr. HENDERSON

I believe that is an entirely different question. If the hon. Member wants the Prime Minister's reasons, he had better ask him for them.
