§ SIR CHARLES W. DILKEasked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether Her Majesty's Government have received information to the effect that the Turkish Government have declined to accept the frontier proposed for Greece by the 13th protocol of the Congress of Berlin even as a basis for negotiation, and have refused to surrender any territory in Epirus?
§ MR. BOURKEThe House will recollect that a day or two ago I stated that negotiations upon this subject were still going on. I am sure, therefore, that the hon. Baronet will see that it is impossible for me to state at present the details of those negotiations. I may also remind the hon. Baronet that Her Majesty's Government must necessarily be imperfectly acquainted at the present moment with the details of the negotiations.
