§ MR. J. M. ROBERTSONI beg to ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs how many, and which, ministers, under-secretaries, and advisers of the Egyptian Government are now absent from Egypt on leave.
§ SIR EDWARD GREYI have no information on the subject; the arrangement at any given moment as to the leave of Egyptian officials is not one in which His Majesty's Government could reasonably interfere.
