HC Deb 17 May 1898 vol 57 c1553
MR. THORNTON (Clapham)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether the date for the Brussels Conference on Sugar Bounties has been fixed; and, if so, whether he will give the date; and whether the British delegates have been appointed; and, if so, whether he will give their names?

THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR INDIA (for Mr. CURZON)

The date has been fixed for 7th June, but it seems likely that there may be a postponement. The appointment of the delegates to represent Her Majesty's Government is under consideration, but has not yet been completed.
