HC Deb 03 March 1936 vol 309 cc1213-4W
Sir N. GRATTAN-DOYLE

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he will inform the Argentine Government that competitive Government building of railways and unreproductive railway construction work, re- dundant staffing, and unremunerative freight rates imposed upon Anglo-Argentine concerns cancel much of the reduction in the exchange tax; and will he also notify the Argentine Government that restrictions of the rights of the Anglo-Argentine railways to earn dividends is causing dissatisfaction among British investors?

Viscount CRANBORNE

All these questions have already been, and will if necessary continue to be, the subject of representations to the Argentine Government.
