HC Deb 11 July 1932 vol 268 c878
24. Sir A. KNOX

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he has considered the possibility of utilising the presence of the Minister to China in this country to obtain a detailed report on present conditions in China for the information of the House?

Sir J. SIMON

I do not consider that I should be justified in asking His Majesty's Minister, after nearly six years of uninterrupted service, to devote his hard-earned leave to preparing a special report for this purpose.
