HC Deb 14 December 1916 vol 88 c812
8. Mr. LYNCH

asked whether, in view of the attitude assumed by the enemies of the Allies in Greece and the increasing danger of delay, he can state definitely the intentions of the Government in regard to the authority of King Constantine?

Lord R. CECIL

The Governments of the Allies are fully alive to the danger of delay in dealing with the unsatisfactory situation in Greece, and they are about to present certain demands to the Greek Government with a view to clearing it up.

Mr. LYNCH

I shall take the earliest opportunity of raising this question.

Mr. ASHLEY

Will the right hon. Gentleman include any demand for guarantees for the supporters of M. Venizelos in Athens?

Lord R. CECIL

In view of the fact that a new Government has been recently formed, I think it would be desirable not to press the matter further.
