asked whether he has any information showing that the Peruvian Government have, since the publication of Sir Roger Casement's Report, contemplated giving to Señor Arana a definite title to the Putumayo concession; and, if so, will he cause immediate inquiries to be made at Lima on the subject?

The answer is in the negative.

Which part of my question is in the negative, whether he has any information or whether he will cause immediate inquiries to be made?

The question was as to whether my right hon. Friend has any information and the answer to that question is in the negative.

Has the hon. Gentleman seen the statement made by Señor Arana in the Chancery Court some time ago?

Yes. I assume the information referred to would be information upon which he could rely.

If you have not had any information, will the hon. Gentleman make inquiries?

Certainly we will.
