HC Deb 01 June 1933 vol 278 cc2068-9
71. Mr. THORNE

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether the Four Power Pact document, showing details of the proposed agreement, will be printed as a White Paper?

Sir J. SIMON

Yes, Sir.

Mr. COCKS

Will the White Paper also contain the terms of the Pact as origiNaily proposed, so that we can compare the two versions?

Sir J. SIMON

The exact form of the document is not quite decided, but I do not think it would be desirable to do that. It will contain a document which will explain the story quite clearly.

Mr. THORNE

Will this information bring the question up-to-date, because there appears to have been some alteration made in Rome the other day?

Sir J. SIMON

The White Paper will contain what is quite up-to-date.
