§ Mr. DILLONasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, whether the British Government had been consulted by the French Government in reference to the proposed military operations against Fez; and whether the British Government had in any way approved or made itself responsible for this attack on the independence of the empire of Morocco?
§ The SECRETARY of STATE for FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Sir Edward Grey)His Majesty's Government have been informed by the French Government of the measures which are being adopted for the succour of Europeans in Fez, and they understand that information has also been given to ether Governments. The action taken by France is not intended to alter the political status of Morocco, and His Majesty's Government cannot see why any objection should be taken to it.
