HC Deb 18 July 1911 vol 28 c855
Mr. BUTCHER

asked what is the reason why in the second Peace Conference (Conventions) Bill, as originally presented to the House, the Union of South Africa was not mentioned in Clause 1, Sub-section (4); and why in the revised Bill the Union of South Africa is expressly referred to?

Sir E. GREY

The words "Union of South Africa" were omitted by inadvertence in the Bill as originally introduced in the House.
