HC Deb 04 June 1930 vol 239 cc2131-2
5. Mr. CROOM-JOHNSON

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he is now in a position to make a statement as to the proceedings of the committee appointed to consider the question of actions brought in other European countries on judgments obtained in English courts?

Mr. A. HENDERSON

Negotiations between British and Belgian legal experts have resulted in a draft Convention for the reciprocal enforcement of judgments. His Majesty's Government are now considering this draft together with the question of entering into informal negotiations with certain other countries before the necessary bills are drafted and submitted to Parliament.
