§ MR. ARTHUR ARNOLDasked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether any arrangement or convention has been concluded providing that the cost of the British Army of occupation shall be charged upon the revenues of Egypt?
§ SIR CHARLES W. DILKESir, no Convention has been concluded; but the question of the cost of the Army in Egypt is, of course, under consideration. I fear that it will not be in my power, looking to the circumstances stated on 166 Tuesday by the Prime Minister, to give the House information with regard to it.
