HC Deb 17 December 1952 vol 509 c207W
96. Mrs. Castle

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he will now make a statement on the progress of the negotiations with the Federal Government at Bonn on the disposal of Herr Alfred Krupp's assets in the coal and steel industries.

99. Mr. Driberg

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he is now in a position to inform the House of the results of his conversations with the Federal German Government on the steps to be taken to prevent Herr Krupp from re-acquiring substantial interests in the German coal and steel industries.

Mr. Nutting

I have nothing to add to the answer given to the hon. Member for Leyton on 15th December (Mr. Sorensen). Negotiations are still proceeding, and a report will be made to the House as soon as this is possible.
