HC Deb 24 May 1938 vol 336 cc1024-5
34. Mr. Creech Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs what is the nature of the commercial treaty with Portugal relating to the High Commission Territories in South Africa?

Lord Stanley

A new agreement which replaces, with a few modifications, that published in the Command Paper Cmd. 3676, was signed at Lisbon on nth May, and will be issued in due course in the Treaty Series. The agreement provides for reciprocal most-favoured-nation treatment between Mozambique and the High Commission Territories.
