HC Deb 30 November 1932 vol 272 cc817-8
4. Mr. DORAN

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he is aware that the Moscow trades union radio station still continues to broadcast anti-British propaganda on four nights a week; what steps he proposes to take in order to see that this breach of agreement does not continue; and whether he is aware that some of these transmissions are in code for the benefit of their agents in this country?

Sir J. SIMON

I would refer my hon. Friend to the answer given by the Under-Secretary of State to my Noble Friend the Member for Lonsdale (Lord Balniel) on the 14th of September, 1931. I have been in communication with other Departments concerned, and think it would be expedient to give no further answer at present.

Sir NICHOLAS GRATTAN-DOYLE

How long will the Government tolerate these frequent beaches of agreement?

Sir J. SIMON

I can only repeat that it would be expedient to give no further answer at present.
