HC Deb 06 February 1929 vol 224 c1792W
Mr. WARDLAW-MILNE

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether there is any treaty between the British Government and the Sultan of Koweit; and whether any subsidies are paid to that ruler?

Sir A. CHAMBIERLAIN

The Sheikh of Koweit is in treaty relations with His Majesty's Government, and is recognised as an independent ruler under British protection. The answer to the second part of the question is in the negative.
