HC Deb 18 February 1947 vol 433 c974
66. Colonel Crosthwaite-Eyre

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what counter-claims on war balances have been submitted to those Latin-American States which joined the United Nations at a late date, and which benefited from neutrality at the expense of the war effort of this country.

Mr. Dalton

I am not sure what States the hon. and gallant Member has in mind, but, in all negotiations about sterling balances account must be taken of the comparative war effort of the parties.
