§ Mr. AMMONasked the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether under the Arms Traffic Convention or any other international instrument, steps are being taken to prevent the importation of arms into Manchuria?
§ Captain EDENThe Arms Traffic Convention is not yet in force, and there is no other international agreement whereby the importation of arms into Manchuria.could be regulated. It is, however, the practice of His Majesty's Government to refuse licences for the export of arms to China, unless the transaction has the approval of the Chinese Government.
