§ MR. BRYCEasked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether any steps have as yet been taken by the Ottoman Porte to carry out the reforms in Armenia which it undertook by the 61st Article of the Treaty of Berlin; and, if not, whether Her Majesty's Government are continuing to press upon the Porte the necessity of executing these reforms, and the dangers which may follow its neglect to do so?
§ SIR CHARLES W. DILKEI regret to say no steps have yet been taken 1930 by the Porte. Her Majesty's Government have not ceased, and will continue to endeavour, to impress upon the Porte on every fitting opportunity the necessity of executing those reforms, and the dangers incurred by further delay.
§ MR. BRYCEasked, whether there was any objection to laying on the Table of the House the communications that had passed between the Government and the Porte?
§ SIR CHARLES W. DILKE, in reply, said, he did not think there would be any objection if the hon. Member would move for them.
