Viscount SANDON

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he has any information showing what were the causes of the action of Latvia and Mauri- tius in withdrawing from the International Conventions and Agreements, as stated ia Cmd. 2804?

Mr. LOCKER-LAMPSON

His Majesty's Government have no information regarding the reasons for the denunciation by Latvia of the agreement for the prevention of false indications of origin on goods. The Government of Mauritius withdrew from the Convention for the International Institute of Agriculture, because they considered that the benefits accruing from the Convention were not commensurate with the expense, entailed.
