HC Deb 12 August 1907 vol 180 cc797-8
MR. LONSDALE (Armagh, Mid.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he has any information as to the present position and whereabouts of Sir Harry Maclean; and whether there is any immediate prospect of his release.

Mr. RUNCIMAN

Sir Harry Maclean is believed to be somewhere in the vicinity of Al-Casar, but we have no information as to his exact whereabouts. His Majesty's Minister at Tangier is doing all he possibly can with the view of obtaining his release.

* MR. ASHLEY

Have the terms of the release been communicated to His Majesty's Government?

MR. RUNCIMAN

The hon Gentleman had better put down a Question.

* MR. ASHLEY

I have put down several Questions on this subject.
