§ SIR WILFRID LAWSONasked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether the document in which Arabi Pacha and his companions give "their word of honour to go to whatever place may be indicated" by the Egyptian Government is still in the possession of the English Foreign Office, and only a copy of it been "handed to the Egyptian Government;" and, if this be so what is the reason for this document having been removed from the custody of the Government with whom the engagement was made, and retained by a Government which is not a party to the undertaking?
§ LORD EDMOND FITZMAURICESir, the declaration was sent to the Foreign Office by Lord Dufferin. There will be no objection to its being handed over to the Egyptian Government if they desire it.
