HC Deb 18 July 1947 vol 440 c87W
Mr. Nally

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he will give the names of organisations in the U.S.S.R., sponsored by Soviet citizens, whose purpose is the encouragement of friendship and understanding between the United Kingdom and the U.S.S.R.; and the paper allocation given to the publications of such organisations by the Soviet Government.

Mr. Mayhew

To the best of my knowledge there are no organisations serving this specific purpose in the Soviet Union, The Government-sponsored organisation Voks, the All Union Society for Cultural Relations with Foreign Countries, which handles scientific and cultural exchanges, has an English section. No information is available regarding its paper allocation.
