HC Deb 31 May 1932 vol 266 c976
12. Mr. PARKINSON

asked the President of the Board of Trade if his attention has been called to the recent demonstration at the docks against the loading of vessels with munitions for Japan; whether he can state what arms and munitions have been licensed by him this year for export to Japan; and if he will withhold his licence from any further requests for such exports to Japan?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

The answer to the first part of this question is in the affirmative; as regards the second part, I would refer to the answer given yesterday to a question by the hon. Member for Westhoughton (Mr. Rhys Davies); the answer to the last part is in the negative.
