HC Deb 14 February 1940 vol 357 c733
2. Mr. Levy

asked the Prime Minister what is now the position regarding the supply of oil from Rumania to Germany; whether British concerns in Rumania are, or may be, obliged to sell oil to Germany; and what representations have been, or are being made, to the Rumanian Government on this matter by His Majesty's Government?

Mr. Butler

The question of the export of oil from Rumania in all its aspects is at the present time the subject of discussion between His Majesty's Government and the Rumanian Government, and I am not in a position to make a statement.
