HC Deb 12 March 1946 vol 420 c176W
Mr. Moyle

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he has any statement to make on the conclusion of a monetary agreement between this country and Switzerland.

Mr. Dalton

A Monetary Agreement between His Majesty's Government and the Swiss Government has been signed today. It provides a satisfactory mechanism of payments between the sterling area and Switzerland and will thus facilitate the resumption of Anglo-Swiss trade. The text of the Agreement will be presented to Parliament and copies will be available in the Vote Office tomorrow.
