HC Deb 18 February 1954 vol 523 cc2126-7
3. Mr. E. Fletcher

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the present state of negotiations for a double taxation agreement with the West German Government; and when he expects a convention will be signed.

Mr. Boyd-Carpenter

Negotiations are almost complete, but one or two small points remain to be settled. I hope that signature of the agreement will not be long delayed.
