HC Deb 05 June 1957 vol 571 cc94-5W
66. Mr. Swingler

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if, in the light of the proposals to relax restrictions on trade with China, he will initiate the establishment of an interdepartmental committee to study the prospects of developing trade between the United Kingdom and China.

Mr. Ormsby-Gore:

No. I consider that existing machinery for inter-departmental consultation on trade matters is adequate to deal with any questions relating to trade with China.

74. Mr. Emrys Hughes

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what communications he has received from the United States Government following his announcement of Her Majesty's Government's policy on trade relationships with China.

Mr. Ormsby-Gore:

None.
