§ 9. Mr. Rileyasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, whether the Anglo-Ethiopian Agreement which terminated in January of this year has been renewed, or whether any new proposals have been made by His Majesty's Government or by the Government of Ethiopia.
§ Mr. LawThe position as regards the termination of the Anglo-Ethiopian Agreement was explained in the answer given to my hon. Friend on 19th January. It is not correct to refer to the Agreement as having terminated, since no notice of termination has been received or given. Future arrangements which may eventually replace the Agreement are under consideration.
§ Mr. LawI am afraid I cannot say as to that. I do not think that any conversations are taking place. As I say, the matter is being considered.
