HC Deb 01 February 1956 vol 548 c115W
75. Mr. Parkin

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what assurances have been given to the business community in Hong Kong regarding the future of trade with China.

Mr. Hare

When my right hon. Friend was in Hong Kong last year he gave an assurance that we fully recognised the extraordinary difficulties which strategic controls on trade with China placed on Hong Kong and that the scope of the controls would be kept constantly under review.
