HC Deb 28 November 1932 vol 272 cc457-8
14. Sir JOHN HASLAM

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he is yet in a position to state whether the Argentine national and provincial governments have discharged the longstanding unpaid debts for freight due to the railways working in the Argentine with British capital?

The SECRETARY of STATE for FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Sir John Simon)

I understand that negotiations about the state of the account current between the railway companies and the authorities concerned are still proceeding between them.
