HC Deb 04 July 1957 vol 572 c138W
74. Mr. Ellis Smith

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he will state the Treaties, with dates, which exist between the United Kingdom and Japan; whether he is aware that these treaties are restricting British export trade; and what action he intends to take to modify them.

Mr. Ian Harvey

The list of agreements affecting trade between the United Kingdom and Japan is given below. None of these Agreements restricts our export trade and no action to modify them is, therefore, intended.
