§ 55. Mr. LENNOX-BOYDasked the President of the Board of Trade the nature of the ordinance regulating the import of Australian goods recently promulgated by the Japanese Government; and whether he has made any representation to the Japanese Government on this matter?
§ Mr. RUNCIMANI would refer my hon. Friend to the answer given yesterday to the hon. Member for Basingstoke (Mr. Donner).
§ Mr. LENNOX-BOYDWhen the right hon. Gentleman receives a copy of the ordinance, will he make representations to the Japanese Government, and thereby show that penal action against any part of the Empire is action against the Empire as a whole?
§ Mr. RUNCIMANI think I had better await the receipt of the ordinance itself.
