BARON HENRY DE WORMS

asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether, in view of his statement that Her Majesty's Government entertain no doubt that Tajoura Bay is part of Egypt, under the Rule of the Khedive and the Suzerainty of the Sultan of Turkey, Her Majest3''s Government are prepared to oppose any cession of Tajoura Bay to France by the Sultan of Laita?

SIR CHARLES W. DILKE

The Question put by the hon. Member is a hypothetical one. Should the case arise, the matter will be dealt with by Her Majesty's Government; but we are not aware that it has arisen.
