HC Deb 06 December 1938 vol 342 cc990-1
51. Mr. Mander

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he will state the credit balance available in London accruing out of the Anglo-German commercial Treaty?

Mr. Stanley

The hon. Member appears to be under some misapprehension. Payments between this country and Germany are not subject to a clearing arrangement, so that the question of a credit balance in London accruing out of a commercial or payments agreement with Germany does not arise.
