23. Mr. William Shepherd

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Civil Aviation what reciprocal rights were secured by British Airlines, in respect of the facilities given by the British Government to foreign services operating from Swatow and Foochow.

Mr. Lindgren

The reciprocal rights are shown in the schedule of routes attached to the United Kingdom-China Air Transport Agreement, published as Command 7211.

Mr. Shepherd

When shall we begin to take advantage of these reciprocal rights?

Mr. Lindgren

As soon as we have made the necessary local arrangements and the aircraft are available.
