§ Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHYasked the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether the Finnish Conservative Government has fallen; whether a Socialist or Social-Democratic Government has assumed power; and whether His Majesty's Government hopes to maintain the same friendly relations with the present Government of Finland as with its predecessor?
Mr. HARMSWORTHThe Finnish Government resigned on 17th November, but on 19th November reconsidered their resignation and consented to remain in office. The situation therefore alluded to in the second and third parts of the question does not arise.
