HC Deb 10 February 1938 vol 331 cc1286-7W
Mr. Mander

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether it is proposed that the London Naval Treaty of 1936 shall be denounced in so far as the fixed limit of 35,000 tons for battleships is concerned; and what information he possesses with regard to the building of 43,000-ton battleships by Japan?

Viscount Cranborne

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply which I gave to my hon. Friend the Member for Chester (Sir C. Cayzer) on 7th February, to which I have nothing to add.
