HC Deb 14 March 1907 vol 171 c221
SIR H. COTTON (Nottingham, W.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether, having regard to the importance of the resolutions recently recorded by the Egyptian General Assembly, he will lay a copy of them upon the Table of the House.

SIR EDWARD GREY

I have not yet received a copy of the resolutions. Till then I cannot say whether they contain anything of importance beyond what has already appeared in the Press.

*MR. REES (Montgomery Boroughs)

Has the right hon. Gentleman received any resolutions from Alexandria and Cairo against these resolutions?

SIR. EDWARD GREY

I cannot say.

SIR H. COTTON

Will the right hon. Gentleman apply for a copy of the resolutions?

SIR. EDWARD GREY

From what I have seen of them in the Press they do not appear to be practical.
