HC Deb 17 November 1932 vol 270 cc1285-6
43. Lord APSLEY

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether, in view of the number of British subjects who are now being invited to go out and settle and carry on plantation work at Victoria, on the Parana river, in South America, he will instruct the British representatives on the spot to make an inquiry into the finance and prospects of such plantation work for the guidance of other British subjects?

The PRIME MINISTER

My right hon. Friend has already requested His Majesty's Ambassador at Buenos Aires to keep him fully informed of the development of this scheme in so far as it concerns British subjects.
